Basically, as long as it is the will of the community admin actions are not abusive. Untrue. The community could agree to an action that was abusive to a non-deserving user and that action would still be abusive. What you're saying is like saying if the community agrees that the admin can violate the ToU, they can violate the ToU, which is also not true. There are layers of communities. The ToU represent the wikia community at large. The actions I talking about is LGBT wikia blocking because of homophobic or transphobic actions elsewhere. To handle the abusive community problem I agree but in my view that bad community, not a bad admin. Is preferable that an admin ignore the local community and instead implement what the larger community would want. Yes. A real world example of a bad community was slavery and the laws surrounding it, judge had enforce those laws. Did that make them bad judges? no. Would been preferable for them nullify the law and end slavery? yes but like I said bad community. Listen my view are my views you don't have to agree. And actual good we don't agree because we can share our views with each other.

The "larger community" is a bit vague and an unexplained block is still bad thing. It helps to have a good set of general reasons in the block menu, if you're too lazy to be specific.
