So then what are we supposed to do when an admin of moderator abuses their power? Sit there are take it? We're supposed to be the leaders of the wiki, and yet we can't even trust our own anymore to use their powers fairly? We went ahead with this announcement because it was a majority rule. A majority of the Admins, a chat moderator and even a few Normal users agreed with the rule. However, at the time, only Soldier did not. A majority vote thus led to this.

Yes, it is harsh. But it's the only solution we have to responding to a situation like the other day. This rule came about because of Jayden's and Soldier's irresponsible actions of their abuses of their powers. It may have been over a certain "argument" between the two of you, but your actions have a deeper meaning. They reflect your attitudes of disregard to your own rules, you seem to believe that the rules don't apply to you, that you two are above them somehow. If we don't have a punishment against such actions, how can we prevent a situation of higher magnitude just like the other day in chat? Everyone has to respect the rules, especially Admins.

A harsh situation requires a harsh punishment.
