If this continues, I believe that it would be best to suspend the user for a few days--even if this would result in the loss of some valuable contributions.

If a user is unwilling to play by the rules – even if they perfectly understand that they have to work with this system – then I would talk to them in private first and let them know that they should work with the most important part of this site (the users who create content)), not against them.

If the user is consistently causing issues I would suggest temporary suspension to my fellow mods, and if they are in agreeance do so.
