:::::The failue to use first name & last initial should not be a blockable offense,IMO; and the guidelines themselves say "encouraged" or "recommended". [[User:RobSmith|Rob Smith]] 23:51, 18 July 2011 (EDT)

::::::I think generally that block reason hasn't been used in a strict sense, but rather only when usernames are offensive or potentially offensive. But I agree.--<small>[[User:Iduan|<span style="color: #FFCCCC; background: #660000">I]][[User_talk:Iduan|<span style="color:#CCCCFF; background:#000033">Duan]]</span></span></small> 23:54, 18 July 2011 (EDT)

:We need to consider shorter block times in general, and maybe order the current list by severity. Sockpuppetry and vandalism are most definitely not in the same league as edit warring and 90/10.
:Especially 90/10 (even more so in the current "It's called 90/10, but the numbers don't actually matter" interpretation) is little more than an easy escape hatch from a debate a sysop might end up losing, so there needs to be some sort of balance to it. (More on balance later, perhaps. It's an important topic, but also a more global long shot.)
:Some people need to keep in mind that we need to build a community. That doesn't mean blindly accepting anybody, but it also doesn't mean giving five-year-blocks to people who point out that you made a mistake. My very presence here shows that things are moving in a better direction, so let's hammer out a way to distinguish between blocking (months/years for vandalism) and nudging (hours, days to cool down). --[[User:Sid 3050|Sid 3050]] 08:03, 19 July 2011 (EDT)
