Lets face it though, you people encourage him. Not only by responding to his posts, but by replying in everyone of his threads. If you truly hate the guy, and don't want his presence on this board, then the only solution you really have is to ignore him, and his posts. If only a handfull of people reply to his posts, they will gradually sink to the bottom of the pile, along with his gigantic magnum sized ego.
I know it's skewed way of thinking about it, because almost every Diabolic post has people taking cracks at him, but when he reads that, he gets everything he truly wants, and that in a word is ATTENTION. I doubt the guy wants people to love him (at least on this forum), and i'm pretty sure he's not here to make friends (unless he wants to start some sort of fightclub). So, that only leaves Attention, positive or negative -- because there are a few people here who actually identify with his views. Whinning, bitching, poking fun of him, appealing to him as a rational human being as all failed, and i suspect his comments in this thread at Nat were once again delivered with the intention of getting a little more attention.
If you truly hate the guy and his posts, just ignore him and he'll lose interest. You fall into his trap when you post, and it's only going to make him post even more.
It's easier to call for a ban on someone if he posts 7 silly topics with 1-2 replies and persists at this habit verses someone who posts 7 silly topics with 100 replies each. As a moderator, you have to look at Diabolic and figure atleast the guy generates interest (traffic).
Side Note: I know i'm guilty of everything i just said because i reply to most of Diabolics posts as well. The difference being, that i neither care if he stays or not, or what he thinks about me.
