Ross, you seen bothered that some members have
"shadow" admin ability without being explicitly named on the admin page.  Does
this bother you because you expect accountability from these people?

No, it bothers me because (as happened in this case) an email to the Lugnet
admins does not reach ALL Lugnet admins, and one of the admins that was "out of
the loop" reverted my changes.

It seems that NONE of the admins received your e-mail, because the implication
I've been reading is that NONE of them would have told you to go ahead.  But the
point is, you shouldn't need the admins to tell you when you are crossing that
line, and if you can't understand that, then you shouldn't be a curator.

While not a problem in this case, I can see a
potential for confusion and/or conflict in the future.

"Not a problem in this case?"  Ha!

The non-Sophie pics were in place more than 48 hours before Bob posted about
them. My email is clearly linked on the Technic sidebar. Not one person emailed
me to request that I change the pics back, or even investigate what happened.

Just because nobody noticed the prank until Bob went trolling does not change
the facts of what you did.  Do you at this point see why your stunt set off a
160+ message debate?  Would you do it again?  Can you acknowledge that you made
a mistake?
