This thread should probably be deleted, but I'm going to comment, and then close it. I'll let Brad and / or Mick decide what to do.

Once, recently, OS asked for a copy of the forum rules. I couldn't find one, but I think the primary one is "Don't act like a troll." All too often, he does. and, we react to trolls (otherwise, they wouldn't be trolls).

Maybe (giving him the benefit of the doubt) he's not doing it on purpose. Maybe (ditto) he's just incapable of seeing what he's doing and / or modifying his behavior.

And, it would probably help if we (some more than others) would ignore him and rely on the smarts of the posters to tell the difference between good advice, OS advice and opinion. But, that doesn't seem likely to happen.

So, given the choice between constant moderating (of OS and other posters), and removing the problem, the choice, for me, is clear. But, I don't get a vote.
