Note that there are far worse trolls than franky1 who are yet to be banned, so I doubt very much any action will be taken here.
Not only troll, but scammer (with sufficient proof) and people who're wearing signature of scam service aren't banned (casino, online paper wallet, etc.). Even if few of them are banned, it's because they violate other forum rules (such as plagiarism).
However, when a newbie makes a question and this beast comes spitting nonsensical FUDs that bring confusion and upheaval then the thing takes another dimension. Shall you leave this unchallenged?
Last time I saw it, the

saw right through it and called his BS.
But how many user who have performed research well enough to teach other people?
