This is the Dart Blaster Encyclopedia wiki?

Dartmaster, you are a bureaucrat and admin there. You have very little reason to need Staff's help. You have the power to block each and every vandal which pops up each and every time they do so. The only reason you'd need to contact Staff is to seek global actions, especially if they are evading any global bans, or to report them if you see they are vandalizing multiple wikis.

Otherwise, protecting your own is as simple as a couple clicks. As I stated above, much like brushing lint from your shoulders. Hardly even need to think about it.

That, plus not letting them see they are getting to you, so *don't* engage them at any level, removes all the fun of what they are doing.
 * Vandal: [messing up pages…] "Blocked? Make a new account…"
 * Vandal: [messing up pages…] "Blocked? Make a new account…"
 * Vandal: [messing up pages…] "Blocked? Make a new account…"
 * Vandal: [messing up pages…] "Blocked? Make a new account…"
 * Vandal: [messing up pages…] "Blocked? Again? And he's not even throwing a hissy? No reaction at all? Awww, this is no fun…"

Recently I dealt with a troll who popped back up with a forum declaring "I HATE Love Robin! He's always blocking me!"

I broke my own advice to reply… "'She', if you're going to hate me, and that is your prerogative, then hate me correctly." Then I blocked him again.

So remain cool and calm, no over reactions, and block'm when you's see'm. You also have the ability to block IP ranges, but be careful with that as innocents could get caught in that too. Ask for help with *that* if you choose to do it and you're not sure exactly what you're doing.
