I just read your blog on blocking other users. It's great, teaches restraint. Something that's missing on Wikia to a large degree IMO. Only I couldn't help but notice that you've found the long way around. There is a much quicker and easier way of blocking people. Instead of going to the admin dashboard, go to the offending user's contributions page. In the first line of text below the "Profile", "Message Wall", "blog" & "Contributions" tabs, there is a link labeled block. If you click on that the system pastes the IP/Username into the input box for you. Hope this helps. :)
