Usenet dealt with this via killfile. There is no reason why you cannot do client-side filtering (compare /silence with /ignore in IRC). Client-side and server-side each have their pros and cons.

Usenet also had Cancelmoose and the Cabal (TINC).

Both individual and administrative filters are necessary.
