And referencing said person in replies to other people in totally unrelated questions really is immature (see reply to "stupid noob" above). But considering when you block someone, you still see their post there with the content removed, and a link to see the comments, I doubt you have the willpower to simply scroll past.

I think my countless and very patient attempts to maintain a serious and mature decision with this person are well documented over the last 40 pages (and I have refrained from calling his behaviour Trolling much longer than other people here have), just like I believe that attacking people you have blocked (and even if it is indirectly) is no less immature than what you criticized. I will refrain in the future from doing any remarks which could be interpreted as condescending, but I won’t stop to politely ask people to stop responding to him until he either starts showing respect towards his fellow contributors (I’m really not just talking about myself here) by demonstrating that he has actually bothered reading and tried to understand what they have written in response to him or he leaves the conversation to those people who are willing to do so. Also, I don’t think anybody cares who created which thread (and it was already established that he only created it, because he was unable to find any of the numerous existing threads), just as I don’t care that it was me who created a
separate thread for discussions about his “vision” which accounts for at least one-quarter of the 1,200+ comments we’ve had here so far (and which he still has yet to comment in).
I think it’s rather unfortunate that there are no moderators or administrators here (at least none I am aware of), which could intervene and help to solve conflicts here, but I’m just trying to save myself and others time and frustration by attempting to minimize ever-circling discussions. If you haven’t yet felt tired of him, then maybe you have a remarkably large frustration tolerance - or it’s just that you haven’t participated in this discussion for nearly as long as the other people who still bother commenting here have...
In any case, have a great day!
