No, I have to either lock the thread or ban the user.
Simon, this is not a troll or shit post thread. It has lots of very good info and uniquely sourced stuff from joeqsmith for the fairly unique super cheap Uni-T UT210E. It would be absurd to lock it because of a troll attack. If this works then you will end up cutting the nose to spite the face. All of us UT210E fans will have to go to Russian boards perhaps instead. Meanwhile this strange creature gets to win his shutting down stuff that offends him because he is a special snowflake.
Ok... Go ahead... and can we please have SAFE SPACES on the EEVBlog?

You should not lock the thread. You can ban the user who goes out of his way at being an utter dick, or you can recommend the ignore user option.
joeqsmith and anyone else, please go and check your ignore user options in settings. This one is a classic example.

Go to Buddies/Ignore List in your User Profile and the rest is obvious.
(I'm pretty sure I am a victim of the ignore thread treatment too. Ah well, you can't please everyone)
