A lot of these hasty blocks seem to have sneaked in under the tent flap.
Sorry Ed, but we can't use nostalgia as a valid argument. When I first joined you would feel obliged to take a sabbatical whenever someone objected to your blocking someone. But times have changed; that's progress, and you can't stop progress. "Everybody"'s armed now. Why bother sneaking under the tent flap, when you can slash a hole in the back of the tent with your machete.

By "everybody", I suppose you mean "sysop", right ?
