I strongly agree with Kelly's response above. The role of administrator is a
priveledge that should be bestowed upon trustworthy and honorable people. The
priveledge should be revoked if used outside of the purvue of responsible
administrative duties.
Furthermore, I believe that not only the button pushers, but also those with
overly-sensitive buttons are responsible for the less than friendly current
environment on LUGNET.
I encourage and stand behind the administration in the use of consequences for
unsportsman-like behavior.
And I would like to encourage the Buttons and the Pushers to grow up a bit, keep
your nasty words to yourself, don't over-react and cry foul at the slightest
insult. Only you can decide how you react to an insult.
