Well, that's it: desperate people will do desperate things and always have done regardless of the web.

i don't think banning methodology will help significantly. once one has reached that particular state of mind it's just a matter of picking a 'favourite' method. if the chosen way is not available i'd go to plan B.
been close a few times but it was thoughts of the family wreckage i'd create that have always stopped me, not an absence of websites telling me how.
