==In a Nutshell==
Long story short, warnings are preferred to blocks, and shorter blocks are preferred to long or permanent ones. Before jumping to blocking a user, be absolutely sure that a warning would do no good. Before jumping to a permanent ban, be absolutely sure that incremental blocks do not help, and discuss with other administrators. Don't assume that a user will continue to act in bad-faith, because many users do change!
