We don't, or shouldn't, give aggressive trolls due process. Or the right to troll this mailing list. I'm not at all happy that, rather than indefinitely ban this troll, Arbcom has decided to take on his case. This can only give him more opportunity to troll.
But without due process we can not determine if someone is a Troll or if they were actually wronged. You can't escape providing due process.
You can avoid providing an undue degree of fairness... due process and no more.
It seems like that's what we are doing now, telling him to buzzoff the list as we've given him his due 15 minutes... So I guess the system is working in this case.
