PUBG Esports Wiki:Blocking Policy

Blocking is the means by which an Administrator prevents a user from editing the. Blocks are preventative rather than punitive measures, designed to stop disruption and enforce site policies. Block lengths may vary, depending on the severity of the disruption, but in most cases a block may be lifted if the offending user agrees to stop the disruptive behavior.

How blocks work
Administrators may issue blocks to registered user accounts and IP addresses by utilizing Special:Block, which is only accessible to administrators and other Fandom personnel. This page allows administrators to select the username or IP address of the intended blocking target, the duration of the block, and the reason for the block. A block duration may be temporary or permanent. Once blocked, a username or IP address will not be able to edit until the block expires. Blocks may be removed via Special:Unblock.

A list of all currently blocked users on the can be found here, while the Block log lists the complete blocking history. Any individual user's blocking history can also be accessed via the "block log" link on their contributions page.

 * 3) No personal attacks &mdash; Users personally attacking other users, which usually occurs in relation to a disagreement over article content.
 * 4) Sockpuppetry &mdash; An attempt by a user to evade an existing block in order to continue to edit
 * 5) Spam &mdash; Adding commercial links or content to articles
 * 6) Inappropriate account naming &mdash; Creating an inappropriate account name, be it in terms of user impersonation insult, general rudeness and obscenity, is also grounds for a no-warning infinite block. Deeming a username inappropriate falls on the discretion of the blocking admin.

Blocking IP addresses
Due to the dynamic nature of IP addresses, administrators should not block an IP address permanently, and not longer then 3 months.
