Yes.
We had at least one thread calling for him to be banned.
Unfortunately, I think people are now getting 'used' to it.
Without fail, his OP's are almost completely irrelevant to anything, and are the most base and common things. Every once in a while there's something semi-interesting, but that's by mistake, not by design. It's as if he wakes up at 11 PM every night and links to half of Yahoo news.
And when it's not that, it's committed Novus Ordoism.
He will persist in this behavior, as he has on all the other sites he's on-- and in the face of criticism as well. I'm not saying anything here I and a hundred other people haven't said to him before.
One thing to consider: It is a habit of paid shills to pad post counts in order to appear to unknowing lurkers as 'regulars' who might purport the common opinion of the community. Not an accusation, just a consideration.
