Is this idiot really a problem.

Yes. He's here daily and he's posting to people on a ping list, ensuring that when he is gone, the posts remain for those people.

Any chance of adding a feature so that when you check your "pings", you can delete specific ones without deleting the comment from the thread it exists on? It would almost be akin to a filter or block of some sort when you look at your own comments. Just an idea.

I have often wondered why a zotted post will still show up on a ping-list. It seems like a weakness in the system.

If at all possible, I would prefer to see this sort of thing dealt with in-house. For instance, letting somebody post a graphic on the first day of registration just invites abuse. I suspect that this person is a petulant little twerp, and it will not take too much to make him go away.

It seems that FR should be the last institution to invite legal intrusion into the content of posts. You would be amazed how many busybodies there are out there who find your run-of-the-mill FR post offensive, and would love to sue to stop it.

But I am PO'ed at this guy to. I would love to see the hurt put on him, one way or another.

I just saw the images as I was scrolling through forums at the site. I don't get this delivered to my email account. And it was not any ping list I belong to.
