I'd call it a combination of arrogance and perhaps masochism - he enjoys
knowing it bothers others and enjoys not doing anything about it.  The 'Net is
full of those people, as hardly needs mentioning.

SLRN newsreader at least offers helpful killfile functionality where you simply
'downgrade' a user's posts.  That's easily circumvented by the offende
nymshifting, which remains a weakness of Usenet.  The really effective approach
is to have everyone systematically ignore the offender until he gets bored and
goes away.  Not easy ...
