Note, for the record: Jamie only agreed that the admin who blocked you could've handled it better. I agree with that too. He never agreed with your position in the debate, or your behavior.

An admin's job is more than "protecting a wiki". An admin wears many hats... janitor, hall monitor, teacher, legislator, discussion leader, den-mother, enforcer, babysitter, annoying know-it-all nerdy cousin, judge, jury, and also executioner. And many, many more.

"Abuse" is hard to quantify, because it is an opinion, really. The Terms of Use are vague on where regular enforcement of the peace turns to what some might consider power abuse (but others don't). If you're the blocked one, it's easy to shout "abuse!". If you're the blocker, you can justify your actions beyond the reasonable to prevent that moniker. Bad admins exist. But bad users also exist. In the end, it's impossible to report on the other without bias. Very few people will ever admit they were wrong.

"Abuse" and "injustice" are subjective, and you've got to treat them as such. You've got to accept that no matter how much you like it or don't like it, there's nothing you as an individual can do about it. Communities can rise against their admins. One single blocked user on a single wiki... move on. Find nicer people, and build a better tomorrow.
