I think we all make allowances for English not being the native language of everyone here, but on the whole most non-native speakers make a better job of it than he does. He also seems to think he can make up his own grammar (e.g. he still behaves as if 'i' were an English word, despite being told that it isn't). However all that is beside the point. The attitude that comes across is that even if his English were perfect he would still be throwing out gratuitous insults and sneering at anyone with a contrary opinion. He is indeed technically capable (which doesn't mean he is always right because in some areas there really is more than one legitimate point of view, contrary to what he seems to think), but the fact that we're even having this discussion indicates an unusual level of unhappiness among members of the list.

As things stand now, I don't favour banning him. I just wish he'd grow up.
