Generally, we discourage admins from blocking users due to spats or situations that took or are taking place on other wikis, mainly because they are not related to Dinopedia. However, if it is likely that the argument may cross over to the wiki or is threatening the administrator, we encourage them to block them and inform Wikia Staff or VSTF (depending on the situation) immediately. |

DP:ADPOL DP:ADMINRULES |
Contrary to popular belief, administrators are not exempt from local policies just because they are administrators. In reality, administrators actually have to follow more rules than normal users.
Use of rights
Blocking
Administrators are not allowed to block users due to personal disdain or bias. As an admin, it is part of their job to be fair towards normal contributors. If they feel as if an user is doing something wrong, they should inform the user before handing out any official warnings or blocks.
