I understand where you're coming from.
I was told that we could do it to the best that our power allowed us to. If needed, a Super Moderator+ can easily be reached now-a-days to issue an IP ban within a reasonable time period.
In regards to @Gilgad, perhaps that needs to be clarified. That is not what I was told and I will definitely need to make sure of it before continuing. I have not been told that what I've been doing thus far has been incorrect, so I guess it's just a natural habit for me to keep going, however I don't want to be under a false impression as well.
