One of our finest internet umpires, HHH, has covered this sitch very well:

1) If you are determined to toss the offending party, after quiet , private discussion, tell him/her they are gone in such a way as to get the troll to become unglued.

2) Then, give him the big send-off. Most people who view it will think you had no choice.


This has worked like a charm for me numerous times, maybe it will work for you.

HHH? Translate please.
His High Holiness.
Always include that I gave Peter that name in an email circulated in the listserv UmpiresTalk.

He liked the pejorative so well, he has turned it into a commendation.

How he did that is a mystery to me!
