I pretty much knew from the first post in this thread that this guy was going to get banned. But then some of you started having fun with him, so I couldn't interrupt the party right away. Then the downward spiral started. I wanted to stop it before it got too ugly.
As for long time members, I find PM'ing them works well. For someone like this guy, I didn't think it would work, he had an agenda and didn't want to fit into the community.
