Line 1:
The Arbitration Committee's main role is to smooth out disturbances in the community by dealing with problem users. Individual admins, or even many editors, often cannot, or should not, legitimately deal with non-vandals who persistently misbehave with any kind of lasting remedies. I think the ability of ArbCom to enforce binding remedies more creative and productive than a standard block is a major part of its success. Solutions like revert or personal attack parole, probation, per article, or topic banning, and other more customized remedies allow users to continue to operate in the community and contribute to the community, while targetting the source of the problem. I would continue to encourage such targetted solutions and view banning as a last resort.

:Yes, I appreciated the effort on his part, so I've remembered that particular vandalism all these months. :) [[User:Dmcdevit|Dmcdevit]]·[[User talk:Dmcdevit|t]] 02:58, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
