I would simply sit down and talk with them.

Maybe because we are a small site it would work.  I'd mention that
people in Australia really don't care about the dinnette set that is
for sale, or that you really don't have to manually include your
signature file.

If the person is flaming, I ignore it.  It is not for me to decide if
Eikonix (and Kodak) want that.  I simply try to prevent posting
mistakes, not thinking "mistakes".  If, for example, somebody here
called Ginsberg a "pot smoking jew" I would think them less of a human
being but I would not remove thier account.  A disclaimer might be
appropriate here.
