This is a bit of a challenge when you don't understand the language the
majority of the person's posts are written in.

Or maybe something like identi.ca has - they have a big problem with
advertisers signing up for accounts and spamming people - individual
identi.ca feeds have a 'flag' button, if someone is abusing the system
you can flag them and someone will check out their account. We could
have a flag system where if the blog feed is problematic it can be
de-listed.
