Fidonet lacks the technology to ban people from it. Usually people just get bored of it and they quit using it.

That's why I stopped replying to these TDS sufferers.

Over time, people stop responding to their drivel and they drop off. At least I think they drop off. Usually one drops off, and another one takes their place.

So the question is "who is Alex *really*?" We haven't heard from Alan in a long time.

But it doesn't matter. They are all part of the hivemind and can't think independently anyway. The all say the same things at the same time. And "argue" in the same ways. If you've read one, you've read them all.

They seem to get tired of losing the debates. The ones that are not completely insane are the ones who give up.

I still believe that they are the same people, just logging in under a different name. But because of the Hivemind it's hard to tell since they all act the same.

Running around wanting to sue people because they laid out a better argument

Well, you know that the Ignorant Elitists can never be wrong. So laying out a better argument must be a crime. Probably "hate speech" or something like that.
