deleting cookies is much easier than changing ip
not ip banning nor cookie checking is a good idea. say you have a forum on your site. if it's a personal site and has not many visitors you will not need to control users post every hour. on the other hand a popular forum must have mods 24/7 online to check posts.
i don't know why forums like phpBB and VBulletin has ip banning. it's useless.
