The person in question has got Rationality Quotes karma-mining down to a science. Ban them, and they'll be back up to 5K karma on their new account within weeks.
HEY! Suggestion:
Can the Rationality Quotes threads be pulled off into their own section, where upvotes and downvotes still happen but don't affect the user's karma?
This makes sense for multiple reasons:
you shouldn't get karma for just quoting things someone else said, without analysis or context; if you can't be original, at least be relevant/topical.
it prevents karma-mining.
it keeps the Rationality Quotes threads from turning into a distracting meta-game.
So that's the trick!
