We in the West Mids are well aware of this user and have been monitoring and cleaning up after him for some time. He has never replied to any emails we have sent him, except very early on. He is very unusual and seems to be a Jekyll and Hyde character who has done some excellent work where he lives http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.48597&lon=-2.01231&zoom=16&layers=M and in other areas just has a brainstorm. Judging from his early replies and from his personal website and his attention to local schools in his area he seems to be a very young person ( 12-13??) with an obsession for maps. Banning him will result in him popping up with another name which will make him difficult to track. We know to monitor his activities I'm interested you've had abusive replies from him and also this Halesowen edit - perhaps there are 2 people using this account?
