Why isn't it possible to simply unregister users who send spam like
this? If it's not a bot and is a registered user, shouldn't there be
some consequence to posting spam? Recognizing that the idiot could
re-register with another name and manually post more of this again, it
seems like "we" should be making it more difficult for him/her to
continually pollute the list.

Not 100% convinced that this is a bot. Yes, this EXACT same post was just posted on ubuntuforums.com last night. Identical wording, pictures, and all.
However, it's a registered user on the forum and unless they have figured out how to get around pictorial captcha boxes, it has to be a real person that is spending the time to register and then post this garbage. Unfortunately, that means there is no way around it. :/
