Oh no... theymos fed the troll, twice. This high-calorie diet will have him going for weeks now.
If the ratings were removed then I think he would have less leeway in derailing threads. If you want the rants to stop, you should remove any inappropriate ratings against him and ask others to do the same.
It's already been done with marlboroza's feedback and it didn't work, he kept attacking everyone after the rating was removed. In fact most of CH's anti-DT butthurt originates from back then, even though it was a clear misunderstanding that was resolved quickly. CH is not the "let go" type and I don't think mods are considering trust ratings when a post is reported (nor should they).
