Pin a tail on the "ChristianJordan" troll.
Apparently hit both Aroslav and Marc Nobbs with cheap slam reviews in comments. Who knows how many else?
If I'd known it was his schtick, I wouldn't have played his game.

Teresa Amabile nailed this in 1981. It's not pretty for ChristianJordan.
Using edited excerpts from actual negative and positive book reviews, this research examined the hypothesis that negative evaluators of intellectual products will be perceived as more intelligent than positive evaluators. The results strongly supported the hypothesis. Negative reviewers were perceived as more intelligent, competent, and expert than positive reviewers, even when the content of the positive review was independently judged as being of higher quality and greater forcefulness. At the same time, in accord with previous research, negative reviewers were perceived as significantly less likable than positive reviewers. The results on intelligence ratings are seen as bolstering the self-presentational explanation of the tendency shown by intellectually insecure individuals to be negatively critical. The present methodology is contrasted to that of previous research which obtained apparently contradictory results.
This ChristianJordan is still at it. Had two comments on my currently posting story in the past week - both of them pretty nasty really. I think the guy needs to see someone, he has issues.
This time I just deleted the comments.

If it continues, you could block the user, though that's pretty extreme IMHO, and should only happen in the rarest of cases.
Yeah, I'm not a fan of "blocking". I don't even do it on Twitter if I can help it - although I do like & use twitter's "Mute" button - sort of a "half-block".
