But can we revisit the cap on block length?
If blocks are not designed to be punitive, but to give the poster a chance to cool off and re-evaluate their actions, then why do they escalate?
I would like to propose that the longest block be a maximum of two weeks. Surely that is long enough to give the poster a chance to re-coup and refresh.
I mean, how long would you put a misbehaving child in time out? 9 weeks? 30 weeks? a year?
Any thoughts?
