First, he's not a troll. Trolls intentionally stir and offend and almost always dig in and engage to fan flames and lead to nodes 10+ levels deep (the irony of the Re ^ on this node is not lost on me). He's oblivious the effect he has and there is clearly some emotional/addiction component; something irrational. Second, you need to be more meta. "Worst Nodes by sundialsvc4 and His Feeders" must be accompanied by "Worst Nodes by those who criticize those who criticize and feed sundialsvc4 thus dragging the threads into deep recursion." Third, I have been reading quite a few old threads waiting for CVS and such at night and there are tons of posts he wrote that are every bit as bad as the stuff he's getting -20 for today that he got 5 or 6 or 10 or 20 or even 50 for back then when no one, but BUk mostly, was pointing out the hot mess that was the reality. Fourth, you're victim blaming/shaming.
