Similar views to Subtank and Morhek. Apart from the user from earlier this year, we don't get enough vandalism to necessitate implementing something like this. Plus in my own experience, these users never have any initiative to change and turn into a good user. I'd rather just do as we've done in the past.--[[User:Spartacus|<span style="color: green; font-family: Segoe Script; font-size: 11pt;" title="Spartacus is an administrator.">'''''Spartacus'''''</span>]] <sup>'''[[User talk:Spartacus|<span style="color:#808080; font-family: Times New Roman">Talk</span>]] • [[Special:Contributions/Spartacus|<span style="color:#808080; font-family: Times New Roman">Contribs</span>]]'''</sup> 11:37, 7 May 2017 (EDT)

:If the user in question didn't have the sense to not be a screw-up in the first place, giving them a second chance isn't going to fix them, and will simply cause more work for other users who have to clean up the inevitable mess they will create. I go with what Subtank said above - just don't block indefinitely the first time around. If they come back and act a fool again, out the door they go, permanently.
:Looking around, vandalism around here hasn't been too much of an issue since we left Wikia, so this isn't even necessary. <b>[[User:Smoke.|<span style="color:Gray; font-weight:bold; font-family:Tahoma Small Cap">Smoke</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Smoke.|<span style="color:Gray; font-weight:bold; font-family:Tahoma Small Cap">Sound off!</span>]]</sup></b> 09:37, 14 May 2017 (EDT)
