:::Sorry about undoing your block on the latest troll - I didn't see that he vandalized two pages. Of late, we are trying to be less heavy handed in giving out blocks '''without warning''' to users who otherwise could be rehabilitated or turned into more productive editors. Again, good catch.

==Blocking duration==
Our current policy is to limit blocks to 6 months after other measures have been taken for abuse. Sure, sometimes a block exceeding 6 months is warranted, however you should consult an Admin. Page lock and other methods can be employed. Even cases of non-profane vandalism do not always require the maximum 6 month block without warning. Warnings can and should be issued. In the recent case where you alleged a sockpuppet repeat offender, and issued a one year block, assuming you had good cause, the block should be limited to 6 months. Thank you for your attention to this matter. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Let's Go Brandon!]]</sup> 17:51, January 1, 2022 (EST)
