And here we go again. Dredging up a foggy/fuzzy past. When will it ever end?
It won’t end. You haunted grindael till he died. You have to live with being reminded about what you did to that good man for the same length of time. Seems fair.
Can I get a summary of this series of events? My search of the board yielded little insight into the happenings. I’d like to understand the backstory, please.

Marcus can do a better job of pointing you to the actual examples, but the short version is that MG2.0 haunted a poster and belittled him and the work he was producing. He did this for a long period of time. Unapologetically. Constantly. Even when that person was known to be dying. After his death MG remained unapologetic about his behaviour.
Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.
Conclusion. Therefore, the best evidence for the Book of Mormon is notoriously unreliable.

...mentalgymnast, in the course of ONE evening, followed grindael onto seven or eight threads where grindael was announcing his new research and his upcoming presentation at the Whitmer Conference, and then trashed each thread with the basest of harassment. Here are a few of his actual comments about grindael's research:

"You're a loser, grindael. " and

"by the way, loser, we are already well aware that you don't believe in the Divine calling of Joseph Smith...so what's your point in preaching to the choir? You already know you're gonna just get high fives. So what's your point? Much ado about nothing, isn't it? " and

"Don't take the fact that I called him a 'loser' get in the way. Just calling it like it is. (Loser: a person or thing that loses or has lost something and/or is doomed to fail or disappoint)"

This is just the briefest description of his trolling, and yes, he's been reported. People have been commenting off and on about a mod queue solution ever since dr. Shades likened mg's posts in the above example to Tobin's contrarian trolling, and noted that the solution for tobin was to place him on mod queue.
And a bit more:

Here we go again. I think it’s time to now resurrect all those conversations to prove your point. Otherwise we’re going on innuendo. Oh, yeah, I called him a loser one time. I’ve expressed my sorrow for having lost my cool in that one instance.
that "one instance" ? BS. You constantly and personally harassed him in a despicable manner.
But boy, could he dish it out. And he did. We sure did go the rounds. I told him what I thought about his expressions and one sided presentations concerning the founding prophet. There was a war of words. Not arguing that.
Wrong. There was not a war of words. You used the same techniques to troll grindael that you exhibit still, of attacking the person, lying, obfuscating, stalking and trolling. You never refuted a single point he made, you only interacted with him in order to post inappropriate, evil, and vicious comments. You attacked him relentlessly.
Gee whiz, he was continually bad mouthing the prophet of the restoration. What would you expect a believer to do?
no, he posted his research. You behaved like an ass. Are you blaming your trolling on your religion?
...Be that as it may, that is water under the bridge as far as I’m concerned...
It is not. You never apologized sincerely. People remember, and you continue your same path of using lies, fallacies and personal attacks when you come here. You're the same troll you always were. I will never forget the night grindael pm'd me in despair, because he wanted nothing more than to share his news about a new publication and speaking engagement he had, and you were fouling up thread after thread after thread with your repeated and ugly harassment. You should be ashamed of yourself.
