It depends what mod intervention consists of. If you mean banning him, I do not think that is called for at this time. If you mean telling him to stop his antics and warning him that he’s headed towards a ban if he continues, that sounds like a good idea.

What do you mean “haven’t gotten through to me” in this case? You mean, haven’t successfully deterred me? Because clearly I understand them and their significance, and additional measures, like a warning, wouldn’t change that fact—it’d just make me more antagonistic.
