Hi Kyng Fyrst. Wendy briefly mentioned a situation from a few weeks ago. Essentially, it was a situation where a group of users and admins who moved to a new wiki off of Wikia wanted to keep some level of control over MicroWiki, but not to the benefit of MicroWiki itself (but to their other, off-Wikia wiki). An individual involved with that had their user rights removed and was subsequently banned from the wiki.

A few days ago, another user rights situation was brought to Special:Contact, as someone asked that a new bureaucrat there be demoted. I told this person that we don't remove user rights except in the most extreme cases, so I advised that the community hold a discussion about whether this person should have their rights removed. Once that discussion is finished, it can be sent to Special:Contact by an administrator and we'll take a look. Thanks!
