== Serious blocks ==
In general, administrators and bureaucrats should not be making serious blocks, except in rare circumstances. It is acceptable to block a user for spamming on the project or for [[TestWiki:Vandalism|vandalism]] but apart from obvious bad-faith disruption, you may not block another user directly. If you believe a user should be blocked for other serious reasons, either request so on the [[TestWiki:Community portal|Community portal]], or approach a consul directly. Please be sure to supply a good reason for the block, whether you request it or make it. Failing to do so could be considered harassment on your part.

Furthermore if you block someone without a valid reason, then you could be desysopped and possibly blocked as well.
