    The owner of this sit here, http://www.youradsenseprofits.com

    Keeps spamming my site http://www.blogengage.com

    now what he's doing is taking other domain names he owns I guess and forwarding them to that site seeing that site is already banned!

    The last one I just banned was http://www.automatic-content.com

    So today he has submitted like 10 times and over the last month maybe 100!

    I did a whois and requested he stop but no luck!

    Any suggestions on what my next step is?

    IMO this isn't enough info to give full advice
    but check your access_log (!!!) to see

    what referrer he uses each time
    what agent he uses each time
    what IP he uses to access/enter your site each time

    if one of above is identical for all submissions, then you have a rather easy job to block either the
    referrer
    agent ( unless its a mozilla or IE )
    IP

    using .htaccess

    if you require registering before submission
    maybe you can change your register-defaults to require admin verification before submissions are accepted

    or if he uses same email - block email
