This could be the same guy and if everybody ignores him then he might win

Since newsgroups are the only true democracy there isn't much chance
of anyone becoming a dictator. People just wouldn't participate in
'his' newsgroup and would simply move somewhere else. A PITA for sure
but not really a dictator. Fortunately this jerk is a TROLL and isn't
likely to do anything but stir up this otherwise 'bored' group ;-)
