that's exactly what I want to know.

An update, after the support request has been submitted:
Voila, I have 5 consecutive visits to my profile from the country where this user originally seems to be from (Not the US).
Initially those visits were displayed as having New York IP's. Now they appear to be from a certain post-Soviet country.

I faced a similar problem over the past one year or so, where a certain person in my language pair would post and send harrassing KudoZ comments not to me only, but to other users (here I mean members and users). This person has been warned by site staffs and moderators countless times, but still kept on breaking all the Site and KudoZ rules. This person's some of the weird behaviors were:
1) Edit comments to any answerer s/he deems to be incorrect consecutively, i.e. five to fifty times in a few minutes to several hours timeframe, if the answerer just ignores this person's peer comments.
2) Deletes agrees entered days, weeks or months ago once s/he is rejected from having a friendly relationship with the site users, or when someone reports this person's behavior to the moderator or the site staff.
3) Related to 2) above, this person enters a disagree to people once the person in question and this answerer's relationship has turned sour.
Therefore, in my language pair, many users including myself have set the Kudoz notification system to "I do not want to be notified of peer comments to my KudoZ answers".
I have submitted numerous support tickets to the site staff and moderators, and all I got was "Appropriate action has been taken", where you see the same old person showing up at KudoZ the very next day pa"trolling" the KudoZ section and entering answers and (offensive) peer comments as if nothing has happened.
Oh, and by the way, this person has a Pro-Certified badge.
So, blocking a certain KudoZ user is impossible.
