Consider the worse case scenario: That he is the same handle behind the several antisocial accounts he has been associated with.
He’s streaks of valid contributions indicate a degree of sophistication and high function.
The harm he causes, in spite of several attempted interventions in the past that have been unsuccessful, earmarks his malignance.
Most importantly, his persistence in contributing here indicates that he has found a sense of community here.
This issue will not easily be resolved by banning every account he makes, or catching every work around. It will be resolved by helping him resolve the underlying issue: the alleged incompatibility of his style of forum usage with that of the broader community.
Has anyone suggested alternative communities he may prefer, for instance?
Forgotten the sequences so quickly?
“When you surround the enemy
Always allow them an escape route.
They must see that there is
An alternative to death.”
—Sun Tzu, The Art of War, Cloud Hands edition
“Don’t raise the pressure, lower the wall.”
—Lois McMaster Bujold, Komarr
Worst case scenario, this is only the beginning. Do not make enemies annoying gnat’s for they can be a million times more annoying than dragons.

Likelier explanation: this is a trolling space too fun for him to abandon.
He isn’t really into trolling. He just reiterates his views and heavily downvotes his opponents.
Troll is one of those words tailor made for tabooing.
