The short story: Gator1, an admin, blocked a user for 3RR on Phaistos
Disc.  The user retaliated by posting a message threatening to make life
miserable for Gator1 and then followed up on it, sending a letter to
Gator1's employer that caused lots of problems, and also caused him to
delete his user and talk page and leave the project.

Obviously, what this person did to attempt to ruin Gator's life is
entirely unacceptable.  What can we do about it?  We have the IP address.
