The point of this blog post is to reduce the number of people posting on the CC forums regarding blocks. Or at least reduce repetition by linking those people to this blog post instead of explaining all of this each time.


 * Contesting a ban never works. For it to actually work there would need to be mature adults and not kids running as administrators around wikia.

Contesting a ban may "never" work on the wikis you frequent, but not all wikis are the same, thankfully.

There are wikis with mature adult administrators who warn before blocking, never use infinite blocks, and realise that most vandals don't return and therefore only block for as long as is necessary,
