Template:BlockPrank

I believe that the usage of this falls under IV.E.1 and in most cases, II.D.2 of the policy. I think that allowing this template to exist is letting people break these rules. 120d Talk Contribs 09:04, July 9, 2017‎

Keep - They are used for humorous purposes that aren't to be taken seriously. Icanhascookie (talk) 14:08, July 9, 2017 (UTC)

Strong Keep - They're used on other wikias as well and it's just a harmless prank. It's not really a block. If you really want to know whether a user is actually blocked, they'll have "BLOCKED" written on their profile header by their name. Cheesie 15:05, July 9, 2017 (UTC)
Keep - Per above. Chuck123456 ^(M•C•E) 15:08, July 9, 2017 (UTC)

Do not insert false information.

"Hey Frank, what did you find out today?" "Terrible, TERRIBLE news... A user got blocked because, get a load of this, he COULDN'T SPIN A FIDGET SPINNER RIGHT.... oh, no, how stupid must those admins be... this is so ridiculous, I thought for a second that this could be A JOKE."
