Blocking System

{DISPLAYTITLE:Blocking System}}
We do not have a set warning policy, as the warnings before a ban will differ based on behavior. Generally speaking:
*Extreme ToU violations, such as posting CP, acting inappropriately towards other users, or extreme harassment or discrimination towards other users will result in an immediate permanent block with no warning or chance for an appeal, and may also result in a report to Fandom Staff for a global block.
*If a user is not being hurtful or acting in bad faith, they will recieve at least one warning before they are blocked.
*If a warning is not acknowledged/responded to and the behavior continues you may be blocked with less consideration, especially in cases of vandalism or spam.
*Blocks can usually be appealed, as the issue is with the lack of communication (we need to know that you've seen the warning and know that your behavior is a problem.)
*The table below are guidelines to ensure that blocks are administered fairly across the wiki; admins may decide that a certain offence requires a shorter or longer block depending on context, users involved, etc.
**If a user commits multiple offenses, the higher tier offense will take priority over the lower tier one, or the block length will be extended from what it normally would be.
**Extreme offenses will typically result in a permanent block with no warning, major offenses will result in a block for a long period of time with possibly no warnings, moderate offenses will result in a block for a moderate amount of time with warnings beforehand, and minor offenses will result in a block for a short amount of time with warnings.
