And now...Blocking *shudders* What more can I say? This system is defective and overwhelming (awfully impressive, but we've pulled it off), why have any of us settled for it? I'll review it word for word now:

Blocking
 * Here on Happy Tree Friends Fanon Wiki, we like to go by the old fashion baseball rule...three strikes and you're out! (Seems fair)
 * Blocks are issued as a last resort to stop rule-breaking, or to prevent future rules violations. (People, a block is a block is a block. If these rules were less forbidding, we wouldn't have to accuse contributor over the simplest things and issue as many blocks. And so often, it's shameful)
 * Blocks may be issued at any time, but typically are issued after one or more warnings. (Well, now I'm scared. It's no wonder Aiden worries so much, even without warning. Speaking of which, there should always be a warning!)
 * A blocking administrator will almost always provide a justification for any block they give; this justification is usually written out on the blocked user's talk page, or in the wiki's block logs. (Sure, tell me to my face why I've been blocked. Eh, fairly reasonable.)
 * Blocks may last for any length of time, but typically last from 1-7 days, depending on the circumstances surrounding the block. (I don't care how long it last. I broke the rules, I was blocked, that's all there is too it. Quit scaring me).

Oh, it gets better. Indefinite Blocks Well...yeah, this is pretty terrible, wouldn't you say? Who are we to say anything when none of us have been following this distorted set of rules properly. On this wiki, blocks are almost always carried out recklessly and not through reason. This needs to change I understand that some users get blocked and "stalk" other users. Well, the truth is we make it too easy. Maybe, if you explained why they aren't allowed and left it at that, they'd understand. If they are disturbing you, avoid them. Your decision to approach them harshly is the reason you got caught up in their bickering in the first place. If they no longer have anything to do with this place, pay them no mind, it's simple
 * Repeated or especially severe rules violations, or the potential of a compromised account, may result in an indefinite block against a user. (Sure, because these are the intentions of every user. Considering the rules though, every one of us should have been blocked for life!) *Indefinite blocks have no specified end time, and therefore continue forever, unless the block is removed by an administrator.'' (Then why the hell is that block template necessary? Seems like the admins will get on your case about anything, I feel unwelcome)
 * If the user is given talk page editing privileges, they are eligible to request an unblock. (The hell is this? You block me for an eternity though I still have the option of talking myself out of it? Mr. Admin, sir, I know I'm not allowed here, but can you please unblock me? And be sure everybody on the wiki is keenly aware of each and every detail as to why I was blocked while you're at it! It's not like I'll be targeted and placed on anybody's hate list or anything! Seriously, let's not draw too much attention to those who aren't even allowed to contribute here!
 * Users who have this privilege revoked are therefore permanently blocked from editing Happy Tree Friends Fanon Wiki. (I've heard of this, it's called a block)
