Dom has friends, so does JAPOV. I think you do too. Focus on them, have fun, or not, your choice. That is the only "Marty Ultimatum" that matters in the end.

Or...

Mr Lide WANTS you to ban him.
He wants you to prove he's RIGHT.
Martin is always at the center of all conflict on your site.
So, if you don't ban him, it will never stop.
Mr Lide has nothing to lose...

I have no problem reacting to trolls. Did he post a threat? I didn't read his stuff beyond the straw man opening. If he wants his account to simply block some or all active users, I can do that for him (and have offered it). "Banning" is one of many things that can be done. But he is welcome to post his stuff like everyone else. If he becomes unruly, like anyone else, I will take action. Obviously as YOU know and others, I give people long long leashes. If they hang themselves with it, so be it. We have had mentally ill people who literally begged me to block them. I did something better. (Not telling). I solved two problems at once. Plus we have a new board coming, so I will then have even more options for people who can't just do their thing without attacking and trolling. It will be so easy to deal with. But everyone knows once sign ups work again, trolls will get in, including familiar faces which is why I don't bother banning people. Why waste the effort? New accounts have a probationary time frame. If they troll, they disappear. If someone has an old account that suddenly starts posting troll stuff, they disappear. Lots of back end info helps. I added 4 new people today. I know who 3 are, but one is a mystery. We will find out soon enough.
