Why didn't the mods know three weeks ago that his address was going to be posted and ban the poster in advance? How hard can it be?

Although the mods have a good insight as to how the forum works they don't have second sight.

Because he’s an adult and sometimes adults have to take responsibility for what they say or do?

True. But it does almost feel like a Safeguarding Adults issue. The guys two sandwiches short of a picnic and RS alows him space to humiliate and subject himself to ridicule. His family, presuming he has one, must be acutely aware of this

^^^ the above post raises a point about Adult safeguarding.

For the benefit of the forum, the above question raises things that some may find interesting.

Working in IT, some of my work leads me to have held an enhanced DBS certificate for working among vulnerable people (adults and children) for quite a while.

Adults are totally different to children, but in terms of adults, people who work with the vulnerable have to attend various courses/seminars, as you'd probably expect.

An interesting one is DoLS which stands for Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards. It's all part of the mental capacity act of 2005.

There is very little that can be done with vulnerable adults IF they have what is called capacity to make decisions and understand the consequences of those decisions.

In a summarised way:

1) capacity MUST be assumed.
2) individuals must not be treat as unable to assume capacity, unless all methods of communication has been gone through.
3) If unwise decisions are made, it doesn't mean they lack the capacity to make the decisions and therefor the consequences.
4) If any intervention IS to be made, it has to be made with the best interests of the individual.

I have great sympathy for people who work with vulnerable adults and the bottom line is quite often "The helpers (who ever they are) tend to be there to pick up the pieces"

This might be very hard for some of you to understand, it was and still is for me - it's just the way it is.

I have actually met the bloke! ,he approached me in a pub New years eve a couple of years ago seeing that I was wearing a Blades badge , & asked me in those unmistakable tones , " do you think Mester Adkins will get us relegated?" I spoke to him for a while , and asked him to confirm that he was in fact Brian the Blade , which he did. There is no doubt that he is a Blades fan of very long standing , but the way he comes across on radio is exactly how he is!
