Okay, so no hidden superpowers then.

And I completely understand the quick blocking for bad edits. Long conversations and monitoring of user's behaviour will drain anyone's energy quickly and takes all the fun out of this wiki thing. We can't let our admins to burn out and blocks are just as easily reverted as edits (in a theory, anyway). I didn't saw any especially malicious edits either but actually I was about to commit my first block yesterday when he didn't seem to understand and kept editing. I had already wrote a reason to a blocking page but checked one more time and noticed that he had looked for help and stopped editing to that. I don't think it looks good to block after another admin has just tried to help. That's why I just warned him and left a message to the admin thread.
