You can customize it via a JavaScript, but i think that the current options are OK.
-> Block anonymous users only You usually want to stop *all* vandalism from that ip. You may want to soft it for proxys, but not usually.
->Prevent account creation Blocks without account creation are mostly useless.
The default you ask allows to bypass default blocks, simply by creating an account (remember: it's instantaneus, you don't even need for an email) and vandalizing with username.
For those who want to do this, the following javascript works. Add it to User:YourUsername/monobook.js (no guarantees about other skins).
To check "block anonymous users only":
// Always check "block anons only" on Special:Blockip //
addOnloadHook(function(){ var x; if (x=document.getElementById('wpAnonOnly')) {x.checked=true;} });
To uncheck "Prevent account creation":
// Always uncheck "Prevent account creation" on Special:Blockip //
addOnloadHook(function(){ var x; if (x=document.getElementById('wpCreateAccount')) {x.checked=false;} });
That should fix the problem. Credit goes to User:Lupin who worked it up at my request.
