I've had a few try the same with me and I've completely ignored them and they very rarely, if at all, do the same to me.
Engaging with these people is what they want. Don't give them it. The term don't feed the troll is true.
And then management can see that it's entirely one sided and ban them.
That said, if all they're doing is trolling by using the reply feature and not giving threats but douchey comments then maybe Management is in a hard position where he doesn't know if banning someone for offending another user is ethical, even if he himself does not approve of how the troll is offending.
That said, if this new block feature is true and you use it against the troll and an alt account pops up to bypass the blocking then I'm deffo in support that he should be banned.
So I'd suggest ignoring the troll, aswell as the others who disapprove of him, and if he persists, report him.
I'm not siding with anyone. Back and forth bickering like this isn't productive for anyone. We don't need vigilanteism here. It doesn't help. If you have a problem with a comment, downvote it and/or report it. Do not reply. All that does is further antagonize the person and cause more off-topic disruption on the site.
Is it normal to wonder how the new Block feature works?

Both of you need to stop this or I'll have to ban both of you. Please stop. Block each other.

Or you could do the right thing and not side with the troll this time...
You have lost so many supporters of this site because of your pandering to trolls and refusal to listen to people who try to do the right thing.

Just ignore him if he's being a douche.
