This dude wasn't trolling or being loveist.
If he was really being a problem, he would have been banned. You know you could always get the mute add-on if people talking are such a bother to you. I'm sorry, but, if he's being loveist, wouldn't that make EVERYONE in the world loveist? People spew these stuffty jokes all the time; whether they're funny or not.
Hell, I've seen people joke like this many times with friends and random people and they didn't care. People knew they were kidding and I'd hardly say that making a joke is trolling. Why do people think that trolling means being an starfish nowadays? That isn't trolling at all.
OP, I'd say this is a matter of "Are you really old enough for the internet?"
