This is what the ‘Jumble Up!’ plugin will do to the commenters which you consider as spammers or trolls, based on their IP address. I took some inspiration from the Disemvoweler plugin for the spam targeting.

Install is not difficult : Download, rename to jumble.php, upload it to your wp-contents/plugins directory and activate it from the admin interface.

Now, to target specific IPs for jumble-isation, open jumble.php and edit the line where it says :

$jumbleIPs = array("0.0.0.0");

and add spammer IPs as such :

$jumbleIPs = array("10.1.12.13","34.123.45.3");
