Since you're destined to keep this alive as much as possible, for whatever reason, allow me to expound on a couple of things.
1) He is extremely knowledgeable about the topic of CPAP.
2) He helps an enormous amount of people with factual information regarding their therapy.
3) He consistently corrects incorrect information, thereby allowing people to get GOOD treatment.
4) He is essentially saving people's lives...
Being somewhat abrasive is not a reason to unperson someone. I know you haven't been here that long, but I will tell you that without his help, I would not be getting the terrific treatment that I have been since I've been helped here. I understand that you have some kind of personal vendetta to somehow get him removed, banned, deleted or washed from this forum because you don't like the way he engages with some people. That's your problem, not anyone else's. Believe it or not, most people can take care of themselves, they don't need you fighting their fights for them. Empathy is good and all, but it can go too far. People are fallible, sometimes they are nasty, dirty, mean, evil and downright despicable. We cannot change who or what other people are, we can only change ourselves. You are not going to change him, but you know that, so the next best thing is to get rid of him, which is very clear to see with your last post regarding the different forums. There is a friend and foe function here to enable users to not see what someone else posts. You've used it, but that's not good enough for you apparently. If someone does't like what he says, his attitude, or him as a person, they can use the Foe function. Problem solved.
When someone says something you don't like, you have two choices: offer a better idea and debate it, or walk away, that's how freedom of choice works. Removing someone from existence is not a choice. Rallying the "troops" to act in one uniform voice to pressure powers that be to delete someone is not a choice. That's like building a fence around a swimming pool instead of teaching people how to swim, so when they inevitably fall into the water, they drown. It's time to learn how to swim.
