I'm not sure who you guys are talking about (nor do I want to know) but in a previous life I used to run a small online forum/community and I can say without hesitation that sometimes it really is just best to kick/ban a troublemaker. Some people live to troll online - it's something about being behind a keyboard that brings out the worst, and even if they are pleasant in real life (or not), it's helpful to remove them from a community in which they bring grief.
We had one member who just constantly made it his mission in life to attack, needle, poke, and cause mayhem with other members. There was much hand-wringing about what was to be done, and in the end I just simply kicked him off. There was a day of shock, and then everything became instantly more pleasant and friendly.

Indeed, it looks like a corrective action was taken at some point. I had opened this thread only when I initially replied, so I’m not sure when it happened. Kudos to the CAC team!
