I'm not running the wiki, at all. I was promoted to SysOp for honourific reasons due to my long years of service, not because they wanted someone to run the place. I'd like to point out that you're talking about an event I was not involved with because I was asleep and rarely visit the Chat, so I'm hardly the person to question. Regardless, I went to the Fallout Wiki to enquire as to what happened, anyway. One of the users said that it was the questioning of a "Denis" which kicked-off a chainreaction whereby Fallout Wiki users were booted under the pretence that it was a raid - an earlier raid had occured a few weeks earlier when Nukapedians entered the wiki en-masse to make accusations of user rights abuse (I think it was about the blocking of an interwiki troll - I'll have to check that, though).

Anyway, the Halo Nation system of administration and ChatModeration is extremely complex. You have to go through the whole voting system to get people de- moted as well as promoted.
