And that's what some of us are considering. What we are doing however, by
pointing out that we are close to the edge is that people are making Lugnet
unfun to run. If all the admins decide it's unfun, then Lugnet goes away.
I hope everyone will take a moment and think about that.
Think about the precedent set by having a contest to try and drive an admin
away.
Think about it hard.
When I look at how the disrespect of Lugnet and it's admins has increased in
the past months, I wonder that anyone would even be remotely interested in
becoming an admin. If the current set of admins are driven away, what is the
chance another set will be willing to step up?
Think about the implications.
