Doesn't the autoblocker only kick in when one tries to edit?

Which, according to [[Wikipedia:Username]], they shouldn't. Supposedly

I don't see much point in warning them since it's not a behavior they

stop. An inappropriate username is an

warning just seems to be more work for the administrator when the result

the same either way.

One little problem with that is the autoblocker - once their username is
blocked they can't register a new name.
