What is the difference between a normal autoblock and an "angry-autoblock"? In this case, I refer specifically to the AbuseFilter extension, where when it blocks, it blocks as an "angry-autoblock".

Is anyone aware?

A normal auto-block will block the last IP used by the user being blocked. An angry autoblock would (historically) "Block any IP used in the last 7 days. Up to five IPs".

However, support for angry autoblocking was removed in rev:92220. It appears there's still messages related to it in Logging code and abuse filter though (?)

OK, thanks. I guess abusefilter needs updating :P
