The best moderated forum I'm part of is the somethingawful.com forums where it costs $10 bucks to register and the moderators put the hammer down for shitty, low content posts in serious threads. Honestly, just probate or ban all the offenders (e.g. 32519's terrible posting and the guys slamming him). People will eventually get the message.

The problem is that the moderators don't seem to recognize personal attacks.
I can confirm this from personal experience.
