http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sock_puppet#Multiple_accounts 
says nothing of that sort. "not officially sanctioned" is very different 
from "not allowed". In any case, it doesn't make sense to block this 
user, something that should take precedence over any supposed policy 
violations.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Some_trolls 
is also over the top. I am involved in trolling. I troll various people 
online sometimes.
