> At any rate, if posters are to be only blocked for brief periods of time, then come back for brief periods of time before being blocked again, there are going to be problems and innocents (in the sense that they are responding to rather than intitiating uncivil posts) getting admin actions and all the accompanying disturbance that comes when there's a dustup on board.
I realise that it won't be equivalent. I guess it is a matter of a trade-off between some mostly supportive posters leaving the boards because of the length of their blocks and posters putting up with a bit more incivility on the boards.
To weigh up which is more important to us...
I guess there might be a bit more work for moderators...
