User blog comment:Sannse/How to Block Someone in Your Community the Right Way/@comment-25648422-20160801170033

Blocking is usually a tempting thing for an administrator to do, especially to those who have not experienced blocking a user or to those who rarely block users.

If there is one thing an administrator should consider, it is to come up with fair block lengths that every administrator can agree one. For example, an administrator prefers to block a user for vandalism for a month while another administrator prefers to permanently block a user for vandalism. In order to avoid any conflicts that may occur, the administrators can discuss among themselves what are the best block lengths to set up depending on the offense(s) a user has made.
