I got an easy solution for you:
make it a cron job and have it run every 15 minutes or so
CODE
query = select * from <topics table> where mname like '%777%'
while ($row = query)
{
delete from <posts table> where topicID = $row[topicID]
detele from <topics table> where topicID = $row[topicID]
}
while ($row = query)
{
delete from <posts table> where topicID = $row[topicID]
detele from <topics table> where topicID = $row[topicID]
}
make it a cron job and have it run every 15 minutes or so

Then he registers under a different name.
If say his IP is 67.145.167.3 (making it up), try banning 67.145.167.* or 67.145.*.*
Or ban his email adresses.

Ah but you miss the beauty of it: He'll think that a moderator is deleting his topics 
.
I'm sure they tried that, I'm betting he used proxies. I would have kept up at it, using simply sql queries to delete the spam rather than doing it all manually. Eventually, he will grow bored of it... if not, tell him how easy it is to delete his spam so he knows all his work is gone in .01 seconds.
New email addresses aren't hard to get.

True, i guess he'd be too much of a n00b to know that a script was doing it and not the mods.
(decides to come to Ip for future PHP issues)
