:::Thanks! I can see why you are busy--that's fine. What block time is appropriate in most cases, say, for vandalism? I usually see 1, 2, or 5, (not infinite) but I can't really tell what's the norm. I'd think 5 years would be better, since we have such a problem with vandals here, and honestly, how many people move in a duration of five years. Of course, it will also apply to public or other computers that user has access to...ugh. I think I'm over-thinking this.--[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|talk]]) 19:33, 24 February 2016 (EST)

::::Typical block length is 2 years. Most determined trolls will comeback again and again under different alias, they won't be witing for the block to expire.--Jpatt 20:02, 24 February 2016 (EST)
