Blocks
All vandals deserve a warning, unless of course they where vandal bots. When I was younger I vandalized wikipedia a few times (twice, though I tried to undo it one of those times) because nobody told me it was wrong the first time around. From my experience, most vandals stop after they get a warning, and it's not our job to hand out blocks for every bad-faith mistake made by some of our misguided editors, but to those that appear to be incurable. 00:06, May 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Woah, calm down. I checked the two vandals, though I did not go as in depth as to see when each event took place to the second first time around (though I did before the blocks to ensure what you where telling me was true, seeing as how it's easy to confuse these kinds of things amongst all the chaos). I want this wiki to be a vandal-free database just as much as the next guy and am checking things best I can. 00:13, May 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright, I will keep that in mind . 00:18, May 4, 2010 (UTC)

 * @@@ you'll need to make me an admin then :3 - joking, that isn't something which I want ATM. Ajraddatz Talk 23:17, May 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Lol, I enjoy removing vandals from the CVU list and putting "Blocked" as the summary. Makes me feel like I actually did something useful.  23:18, May 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Haha, I'll remember that ;) Ajraddatz Talk 23:19, May 4, 2010 (UTC)

One account policy.
Just an FYI, we actually do not technically have a one account policy. Although it has been enforced, which is something I do not like to see happen for a policy that does not exist. Just throwing that out there.--Degenret01 08:10, May 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * I actually do know that, although thanks for pointing this out. Either way, am I right in assuming that you guys don't like sockpuppets? Heh, that's kinda rhetorical. Ajraddatz Talk 13:07, May 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Personally I would find more than one account odd, but as long as they don't game the system with votes or some thing, hey, go for it. Especially if you upload pics Jagex might not like lol.--Degenret01 13:14, May 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * As an administrator on other wikis (Brickipedia is where I've had the most problems with sockpuppets, but even that is less than one case per month), I find that if we don't crack down on sockpuppets as soon as possible, then we either don't recognize the signs later, or forget about past evidence. As it is, I keep a file on my computer with suspected sockpuppet accounts/IPs, just in case (Although not everyone is that much of a loser). We might consider making a one user-one account policy, to prevent possible abuses of gaming the system. There would be exceptions, etc, and some allowances so long as the user acknowledges that one of their accounts is a legitimate duplicate. I can start a YG thread, if you like the idea at all.

 * I must say though, (and sorry if I edit conflict you) I really don't see why anyone would create another account and use it, unless it was a bot account or some kind of public server account. Also, for the policy, it could really just be simple; if you create another account, put template on your userpage. That would cover all of the good faith people, and then we can crack down on those making another account for less enlightened purposes. Ajraddatz Talk 13:35, May 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, I know this is a bit farfetched, but just in case we ever allow pics from the RSMV I think that a one account policy could be bad. Although very unlikely, it would be possible for some Pmods here to use checkuser to verify the IPs of people uploading those pics, and report them to Jagex. I know, soooooo unlikely. Yet possible all the same. Of course, anyone ever doing that will hopefully use one of them things to bounce their IPs so it wouldn't matter. I'm really tired so heading off before I ramble anymore. If you make thread I'll just watch it, I am sure it would pass fast.--Degenret01 13:42, May 5, 2010 (UTC)
