I have a problem user. He creates new accounts from different IPs. Thankfully, he’s from a relatively small country.

Is there any way that I can set up Discourse to give me an alert whenever someone from an IP address associated with a given country creates an account? At least then I could keep an eye on those new people and prevent this jackass from causing any more havoc.

You can ban IP ranges via Admin, Logs, Screened IPs. Use either asterisk wildcard or traditional IP notation.
