You must be new to this mailing list :)
no -- this post was intentional on my part as part of a new
approach to this mailing list's 'poisonous people' [1] ... I
am going to try: stop ignoring public misbehaviour, and rather
point it out expressly (that is: 'shame' rather than 'shun')
Sort of like St. Patrick driving the Celtic snake spirits out
of Ireland
'Banishment' either by way of unsubscription, or moderation
cannot work -- a troll will just subscribe another sock puppet
Well-known trolls who find their entertainment during the
workday sowing discontent here, with the techniques of
'Twenty-Five Rules of Disinformation' [2] and otherwise, will
be invited by me to put up or shut up
We'll see how (and if) this works -- it formerly worked well
in the IRC channel where we could use a LART; dunno that it
will work here

[2] Google knows ... This enumeration seems to be of unknown
authorship, but 'rings true' for much seen here
