Hi. I know you're often very busy with cleanup and what not, but lately, I've been dealing with a problematic user who's behavior has only been escalating recently. MIDKOWITCH. Obviously, you know this user, because you're one of the many users he's been sending multiple messages to under various alternate accounts to inquire about creating and deleting pages for characters he thinks either should or shouldn't qualify as villains. Ditto with regards to heroes on the sister site. Anyway, recently, he's vandalized my page twice; the first time by temporarily blanking it, and the second time by presumably deleting my entry about him on my personal watch list. And it wasn't just me; when he blanked my page, he blanked around 10 user's pages as well,

Additionally, just today, under what I'm almost positive is the latest of the endless sockpuppets he's been creating, he sent me a message on the Heroes Wiki where he outright admitted that MIDKOWITCH (he was referring to him as if he was a different person, but again, I'm nearly positive it was him referring to himself) is deliberately committing worse and worse offense since, the way he sees it, if he's going to banned by FANDOM, he may as well try to be the worst. Apparently, he'll be satisfied and stop harassing people if I label him as the worst on my list, but not only am I anything but inclined to give him that satisfaction, but I responded by telling that my personal list is anything but official; it's based on personal opinion and my own experiences, so even if I considered him the worst, it wouldn't really mean anything. And of course, it goes without saying that this is a very backwards and unhealthy attitude that really has me worried.

Therefore, since you seem to be both a very long-term user, and one who's well acquainted with Community Central and VSTF, I was wondering if there's anything at all that you can do to help possibly create a more permanent solution for this problem. I've repeatedly tried to reason with this guy, even now over this latest incident, but if he's really got the mindset that he may as well try to be the worst problematic user if he can't be a regular user and wants to be seen as such, then I honestly don't know what to do. On the one hand, I don't just want to give him what he wants, but conversely, if others and myself don't treat his as such, his behavior may only continue to escalate, and not only will he not listen to me, but he may very well continue to harass me in more and more blatant ways. So sorry again if I'm inconveniencing you, but I really don't want this to spiral out of control any more than it already has.
