god's name an indef block is the desired response to a suicide note on-wiki?
Well, once it's been confirmed as a hoax, an indef block is obviously
appropriate. Before that, I'm not so sure. I guess it helps keep
things under control by keeping everything they do on their talk page.
I think it is also our standard response when someone dies - we block
their account, since no-one should be using it any more, so anyone
using it must be up to something.
