User blog:Pinkolol16/Suggesting a temporary solution

Ok, incase you all are completely unaware for some ridiculous reason (there could be a few select people) let me explain the full thing.

A few days ago a user called Syber.zmartie came on wikia, and he was odd on message walls. He acted quite innocent, suggesting a few video dideas and such which were odd things until somebody got curious and asked how old he was. After this confirmed he was 6, he was blocked overnight, and I sent an email to Wikia alerting them of this underage user due to his status on many wikis which I obtained by looking up his name in google.

Shortly after, and which is the subject of today, things began to escalate. A user claiming himself to be the father of Syber (who keeps calling himself Ian Incisor) began spamming message walls, particularly mine and various other peoples with the notion to unblock this child. We objected because Wikia's ToU about children under 13 relates to this website, however, being polite didn't work and he refuses to listen to us. I came up with the notion of blocking him for a month so he could listen after he cooled off, however his IP keeps changing and various accounts have been made to spam our message walls, each starting with 182.191.

So because I'm sick of blocking whoever the hell this is, I'm really considering this and I'm going to need a community vote on this.

I'm considering a temporary anon block. Now I don't want this to last forever but for a period of time until this person decides it's not going to work and moves off. I'm risking the point of them seeing this, and another reason I don't want to is below.

There are 2 active anon's that I know of who don't want to create an account for reasons that bother me and most of the community. There's someone from France, and another who appears to have an ip of 160 something who is also somewhat active. By risking this temporary anon block I am risking them not being able to edit among others.

I'm just hoping it means they can't post on message walls because this issue will continue for a long time if we do not deal with it quickly. You all who are involved should know the hardships that go along with this as they are generally being harassive and quite insistent, when he isn't realising he is breaking the law by asking these questions.

I do not want to go for forever because I'm aware not all anons are bad, like Frenchie and the 160 guy, but this is becoming a serious issue. I've contacted wikia about this but they say there's nothing they can do beyond blocking this guy. Since he's only an anon, it would make sense for now to do it in my opinion.

So thoughts in the comments. Seriously, we need to get this sorted. It's starting to get out of hand.
