Sure, if you knew the IP address of the offending node, but what if you have more than one node on the same server? (Shared hosting maybe)? Or there are multiple IP addresses? Or what about nodes that are behind Tor hidden services? !gnusocial

I don't see the context for this (not on #loadaverage either) but yeah, filtering by IP is pretty useless in the long run. Either you can't block enough IPs, or you start blocking lots of other stuff too (such as multiple hosted services on the same IP etc.).
