I noticed that you indefinitely blocked a vandal. While it does seem good to block someone like that indefinitely, such a block also prevents the IP address from accessing CP. Because vandals often use different servers, they are able to hide their actual IP address. Thus, by blocking a vandal indefinitely, some innocent person who was unfortunate enough to get the same IP address may not be able to see CP in the future. This is not that big of a deal, but it is probably better to only use temporary blocks -- 1, 2, 5 months or years, etc. DavidB4 gave [[User talk:1990'sguy#Ban editing|a better explanation]] on my talk page. Regardless, you have done some very good work here. Keep it up! --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 20:07, 4 March 2017 (EST)
