First and foremost I'd like it to be known that I do not like having to do this kind of thing. However in the interest of protecting the site from bad actors that seem to have unlimited time but no time to have a discussion about how to behave here. My hope is that this will lead to a discussion and a real solution to the behavior that has been causing problems here on poal.co. @Hanswormhat I genuinely tried to reason with you without resorting to using admin abilities, and your behavior is at this point just abusive. I genuinely regret its come to this.

The straw that broke the camels back is the abusive comments on almost every post. This in my view is attempting to discourage people from speaking and is attempting to use his speech to silence others. This is not acceptable and is not ban worthy but I'm not going to let it continue until a agreement can be reached.

I have not had to take this kind of action in almost a year and I'm very happy I can say that. I don't do it lightly or without a considerable amount of thought.

As always if you think I have made a mistake please call me out on it.

I'll withhold judgement until more information comes out, but as someone who came here because of a ban I'm sure you can understand my wariness.

It's unfortunate that this is probably exactly what he wanted to happen.

I completely understand your wariness. I do I’ve only done this twice in the history of the site IE only to 2 users and the other user got re enabled. My hope is that’s how this one works out.

I hate using bans I don’t ever want it to be the solution to a problem. However people come here looking for it and most of them give up after a couple of days. I’ve never banned a legitimate user and I can’t see a reason I ever would(legitimate being a person who just comes here and talks to people with no intent to shut the place down, if your intent is to shutdown the platform I’m going to act what other choice do I have?)

The guy annoys the hell out of me and he's obviously putting you in this spot on purpose, but it sounds like you're handling it the best way you can.
