I don't see his posts as trolling, but that issue isn't really something one can debate productively, no one is going to change someone's mind on such a subjective impression, and the attempt is unlikely to be interesting, or enlightening for long, if at all. As for the specific post you link to, if it was posted here it might be grounds for banning under the rules of this thread. OTOH, it wasn't, and it was posted after the ban, and just used the same terms the moderator used himself. But I think I'm done discussing the issue. I've registered my disagreement with the ban and most specifically the stated reasons, no point in continuing any longer. I've only gone beyond one post on it because of similar past bans, and because I've responded to replies from other people, but I think perhaps that's enough.
