Many bureaucrats improperly use admin rights as an incentive to contribute. It's a bad idea driven primarily by ignorance and inexperience. Wikia is partly to blame for this because they allow just anybody to create a wiki without any training and poorly advertised resources.

I have some other more suspicious reasons, but I will keep them to myself for now.
