I hope everyone can see I really didn't have a choice. I can't start each day by deleting 10+ posts where Croix de Fer is calling other members foul names. And I got sick of all the reports coming in to the moderator about him and his posts. 
I don't see what else you could have done, but I hope that the people who escalated the problem by calling him names reflect on their role in the situation.  Few, if any, of the people he called foul names had not also attacked him.  There were many posters saying some rather nasty things about him.  It is likely this was a factor in his unacceptable behaviour. 

Did he "jump the shark" or was he pushed over the edge?

I've gotten more downvotes in the last week, talking about feminism.  Apparently, people can't talk about it without getting triggered.  I'd say the same people who "complained to the moderator" about him were the one's calling him names.  His response just took things up a notch. 

As someone else asked, maybe he could have a temporary ban?

Yeah, everybody says they are against feminism, but the pattern of downvotes suggests that there are some people who support it.  It isn't just posts with name-calling that get downvotes, but even perfectly polite condemnations of feminism.

Sometimes it's not about what you say but about how you say it.  There's an implicit undercurrent of misogyny in your posts to the effect of "most women are scuм and left to their own devices will be immoral and cheat".    Most MEN, my friend, end up falling into sin at college.  So it's a little imbalanced to single out women in that regard.  And that's where the downthumbs come from.  PS -- I haven't downthumbed you myself since the sedevacantists battles of a couple months ago.  I will not let my sons live on campus at college in the dorm rooms ... occasions of sin are everywhere on campus.  They'll be commuting to college ... to minimize that danger.

My anti-feminist posts were getting down-voted too, as were those of other women.  I think that this time it is about what we are saying, not how we say it.
