Forum:Blocking User Wikia

I saw admins of an english wiki put an indefinate block on the welcome bot (User:Wikia).

Should i try to explain to them that they should not to that ?

Although, after that another admin has disabled the bot in the proper manner. — TulipVorlax 01:42, May 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * If it's disabled the proper way, of course it shouldn't be blocked. I'm sure the one who blocked it wasn't sure how to disable it. But where does the problem lie? With the flooding recentchanges from new editors, or their desire to welcome manually? If its the former, perhaps suggest that it can be bot flagged. -- 02:27, May 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure, i didn't talk with them yet.
 * The guy who blocked it just put "no." in sumary after he found the bot welcoming some anon user.
 * If you really want to know, it was on guildwars2.wikia...
 * Is it really important for it not to be blocked ? I mean, will Wikia use that account for some other things too in the future ? — TulipVorlax 22:03, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
