Hmm. I'm unsure about this proposition.
- Okay, threatening blocks and saying things such as "if you keep doing this you'll be blocked" isn't needed. But how much of it is already covered by SW:QDV?
- Makes sense; should probably direct users to the admin noticeboard as well/instead.
- Good idea to tell people to not write that stuff; I'm not sure it should be treated as a "request to be banned". Instead, I would just say that it's considered disruption, which is a bannable offense.

As I understand it,
- It's actually not. Telling someone they'll be blocked for some general douchebaggery doesn't only apply to vandals. In fact, the principal concern here appears to not be with vandals.
- The admin noticeboard is a ghost town, but maybe that would get it some use.
- We don't have an operational definition of disruption, and I highly doubt that 'You can ban me for this but...' disrupts anything. Typically it's the thing after 'You can ban me for this but...' that's disruptive, but not always, but if you introduce a comment with such a qualification, it nearly always is something that ought not to be said, for one reason or another, and this policy gives a nice, clean, easy way to get rid of the troll who says it without dealing with the muddled definition of disruption.
