You should have the necessary privileges on the tracker now, since I think you ought to. (I don't have them on the meta-tracker, so Martin will need to handle that one.)
Thanks - I've now removed his User role access on the main tracker.
On the other hand, I'm not actually sure what kind of access is left when you remove all the roles from a user. I did notice the other day that email to the tracker still seems to work for new issues (I think it was a new issue, I don't remember the sequence of events for sure), so we may in fact still need to create a new role for this situation.
We'll try "no roles assigned" for now. I don't expect Anatoly to be actively malicious about this - I still believe he's genuinely trying to help. Unfortunately, his getting obsessed with things that are either tedious to fix or just incredibly hard to change and then refusing to take "no" for an answer is so incredibly draining for other community members that it seemed necessary to send a much stronger "please stop trying to help, as you're doing more harm than good" message. It's a terrible thing to have to say to someone, but at this point I'm more worried about the effect on everyone else (including me) of his continued participation than I am about the impact explicit exclusion will have on him :(
Regards, Nick.
