Why should I? I mean you are another one who fails to produce any original posts." This is also a lie, or, equally as likely, either a failure to comprehend my words or a burst of wildly wishful thinking (Gribbit likes to think he wields power over people, since in real life he has virtually none). Not only did I not complain about being banned, I wrote <a href="http://scienceblogs.com/bushwells/2008/03/how_banning_comments_fom_other.php">a post</a> explaining in detail why banning people works against bloggers whose traffic is significantly lower than the people they've banned, and thus may be viewed as advantageous to the banned parties. If Gribbit wouldn't forbid my comments, I wouldn't write posts about him that frustrate him because he can't delete those also. I couldn't care less if my words are erased from gribbitonline.com, a site no sane people visit expecting to see material of value. If I simply wanted to harass him I, like anyone, could do so using the infinite number of available proxies. He's lying or deluded, perhaps both, and he remains startlingly, malignantly stupid. “Then there is Kevin the Chimp who has the audacity to complain that I don’t allow comments on my posts at Stop the ACLU and that I ban Meat for Brains and himself from commenting here.

You might also take a moment to refresh your understanding of the difference between <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slander_and_libel">slander and libel</a>.
