User blog:DatDramaPlant/The Daily DDP: WikiTalk: The XXXX System

XXXX stands for 4 strikes. Let me get that straight first. So, what is this blog about?

The XXXX or blocking system of the wiki
So, this has a 20% chance of getting me blocked because well, someone (in both the literal and username form) may think this is disrespectful. I make this with all due respect to all the admins and B-crats.

(Not so) recently, MaxStories (or MS) was blocked. I saw the track. It was "swearing, swearing, swearing, swearing". Well, I was appalled. What could I say? I dislike swearing a lot, even when censored.

One week passed. Then two. Then three. Oh, who cares how many weeks? I started to think that he could have changed, so I checked to see when he would be unblocked. Indefinitely. Oh, look! A heading!

A huge wall of ranting text is approaching!!!!
Well that was pleasant. So, this was what was going through my mind. Read on if you dare........

A section of that had to be removed, due to... purposes. Moving on....

There was the thread "MaxStories-The Truth". It eventually turned into an unblocking thread, and it was supported! I was happy for him. (Well, there was an extremely sincere opening speech, he must have learnt Persuasive Writing.) So, he was unblocked. I checked his story the following day. It was updated. I was glad. The next few days, I never saw him. I checked the ban log again.

He was blocked again because... IDK, something about a reason. (I really couldn't make head or tail of what BUL9 was saying, and this is not an insult.)

So there was another vote on the subject. It got opposed. And I went into rage form. (sorry for caps on the next part)

WHAT? THERE WAS ALREADY ONE ****ING VOTE, AND WE STILL NEEDED A RE-VOTE? WHAT LOGIC IS THIS?

Well, that was one part of it. The rest was... well, kind of rude. So what do I think we should do about him?

My idea for people who have been blocked 4 times for swearing all the time
Swearing uncensored are counted as normal sins. However, if this user is blocked indefinitely for swearing only (i.e. never blocked because of something else), he/she will receive a block of one year for each time he does it. The real part is that this user has a quota of 6 months to satisfy. This user will be unblocked. Every time he swears uncensored, he will be blocked for a year and the quota is extended by a month. During the quota, any sin other that swearing uncensored will immediately lead to an indefinite ban. Once the quota is up, this user will then be fully accepted as a normal user, with the whole XXXX system reset. This applies to all users.

There you have it. My idea. What do you think of it?
