Hello There'sNoTime. If another admin were to try to close the thread about Joefromrandb right now, ] they would probably have to say there is no consensus for the block. I figure that there are about 10 people in favor, 7 against and 9 who say that the block was too quick. Ironically, this leaves us uncertain how the 'too quick' people would have voted on the merits. Since the thread has been open more than a week a further shift of opinion seems unlikely. You might choose to just to lift the block and then leave any further action to ANI.
