Closer to blind. From the (rather little) I've seen, he doesn't deserve a ban. But, it's already been decided, so it doesn't matter anymore.
Banning (acceptable use policy) wrote: • Trolling: this is a widely used term with competing definitions. In this case, it refers to people who post inflammatory flamebait without even attempting to seriously debate any issue or provide any information. It's not necessarily a banning offense to post flamebait or be abusive to another user, but if that's all you do, then you won't stick around for long.

He had been doing this most of the time for the past few days, and the threads in which he participated quickly developed into flame wars with his wall of ignorance, strawman and ad hominen's.
He deserves the ban.

If KK deserves to be banned, there are several others who deserve it... some in this thread.

I doubt he'll change any time soon. He seems unusually persistent, like Darkstar.

One week should be enough to teach him a lesson.

But it probably won't. I bet that when he comes back he'll be even worse.

nice way to make friends, n00b.

And this thread has become pointless, and is therefore closed.
