We've banned this account for continual guidelines breaches across multiple accounts.

You do realize that there's a handful of literally the same people here on HN continuously evangelizing one technology by constantly dissing on the other? Because of the pervasiveness of such accounts/comments it invites other people, myself included, to counter-argue because most of the time the reality they're trying to portray is misrepresented or many times simply wrong. This is harmful and obviously invites for a flame war so how is that not by the same principle you applied to above account a guideline breach too?

		We act on what we see, and we see what people make us aware of via flags and emails. Comments like yours are difficult because they’re not actionable or able to be responded to in a way you’ll find satisfying if you don’t link to the comments that you mean. Programming language flamewars have always been lame on HN and we have no problem taking action against perpetrators when we’re alerted to them.
