> That's the weird ( far to mild a word) thing about the blocking rules that people have been bashing their heads against as long as admin has been in existance. No matter how heinous, first offences only get a warning.
Unless they've been PBC'd already. And anyone can PBC someone. If Bob sees they've been PBC'd, that big old first offense moves on to a block.
I didn't PBC Herman Munster, but I PBC'd Shalom34Israel. When Bob came back, that meant a block was enforced, as the behaviour continued.
At least, if you see an uncivil post, whether a newcomer or not, refer to the FAQ, and ask them to be civil. If they don't change their ways, they can be blocked.
