One possible solution is to automatically unban after, say, a week.

I have unilaterally applied the following rule to blocked IPs: * If it was blocked more than 30 days ago, unblock it.

Note that this includes the IP of Helga (H. Jonat), whose 2-month ban should have expired Nov. 9th.

Total of 24 IP's unblocked, leaving three dozen still blocked. (I have a list of the ones I unblocked, available on request.)
