It's an old USENET slangword, meaning adding someone to your killfile.
Most USENET newsreaders had a feature of filtering out posts from
users who were in blacklist, (a.k.a. killfile), so that noise generated
by regular trolls could be avoided (you could not ban people from
USENET and deleting posts was also almost impossible - it was one
amazingly efficient, reliable and democratic thing). Adding a name to
the blacklist was 'dropping someone into the killfile' and 'plonk' is
the sound of dropping something into a (metal) trashcan.
