Another thing I do is run PFSense with PFBlockerNG it has some nice auto update IP blocking filters and also allows blocking of countries and so on. I believe many of the bots get block by that before they ever reach the BBS.
Its free and easy to use.
Take a little bit to get setup mostly because you have to take the time to pick what to block. Worth the time though.
