/*
easyblock.js - Script to quickly block spambots
By Legoktm, with assistance from Ori.livneh and MZMcBride
Adds two tabs, "OP: Spambot block" and "Spambot block".
OP will block for 6 months, and regular will do 3.
If the user is an account, it will be indefinite.
The script will forward you to Special:Nuke once done.
This script very likely may contain bugs, use at your
own risk.
