'Porn is a TOC violation for Staff to handle with a global block so it's not really a local issue necessary for an infinite block. ~DEmersonJMFM'

Quite true! But, Staff responses can take a little bit, and it might be best just to block the vandal infinitely. For myself, who works on the SpongeBob Wiki (which is aimed for younger viewers), if a vandal came and uploaded obscene content like that, we would most likely block the account indefinitely, and then report to Staff. Can't hurt, as Staff is most likely going to infinitely block the account anyway.

'''Blocking is "not" supposed to be for punishment. ~452'''

You are correct! But, if a user, not just an anon, goes through the whole porcess of creating an account, and uploading obscene content, it's safe to assume that their sole purpose is to greatly harm the wiki, and blocking them infinitely is just good protection. Staff is going to do the same anyway.
