I have in the past been summarily reverted by other admins without any attempt at prior discussion, so I know how that feels, and I did not want to subject you to that. But I am thinking now that perhaps you should ease into your use of the block / unblock button, focusing on obvious and uncontroversial cases until you learn how others are using that tool.
