Bottom post of the previous page:

I dunno, i think HG has a point about me. Recently whenever i play i deadmin so that i can play sec roles. Real life has kind of gotten in the way, but overall i don't really feel like i am needed anymore. We have more and better admins than me who can actually put in the time. I have been considering stepping down from admin for some time now, but i am not really sure. Regardless that is not really the point of this thread

I'm gonna give my opinion one more time here because I think it will help admins in general going forward:

If you can't abide by the rules or be around to do your job, just resign. You can come back later when things improve. It's better than getting forcefully deadminned for not following the rules or being silent about how you don't have the time to administrate anymore and then having a harder time getting admin again later with threads like this.

The simple fact is, whether or not bandit is a good admin, if they had simply stopped administrating until they got an internet connection capable of abiding by the IRC policy or at least raised concern over the effectiveness of the policy (if the IRC presence isn't REALLY needed as bandit claims) they would not have been deadminned.

It's a volunteer job for a 2d spaceman game, people. Even if your trial process was hard I guarantee you it would be much easier to get admin a second time if you're willing to explain how the situations that lead to your resigning in the first place have changed (more time to admin, better internet for IRC, better IRC client, whatever)
=

They fully followed the IRC policy up until a point where they forgot a day, not because they wanted to go against the establishment.

This thread suggests otherwise, in fact it suggests bad internet isn't the only reason bandit didn't join IRC

That's just bandit mixing in bad arguments along with what actually happened

Paprika you have some fudge on your nose. actually your entire head.

This whole thread is a farce; it reads like an unironic illuminaughty conspiracy with the headmins as the evil tentacle aliens from space. It doesn't sound like this is really about bandit being in IRC, but rather "quick, we need to nail them for something, let's go with this".

You know how they finally caught Al Capone? Tax evasion. But unless I'm really missing something here, bandit isn't a mafioso with a tommygun and a Chicago overcoat.

Just a shitty admin

Many would argue otherwise.

Go take your medicine and come back when you can act like a reasonable human being.

This thread does give me that vibe as well. Of all the shit admins do, mistakes or outright shittery, deadminning for not being in the irc channel when doing actual admin work sounds like nonsense.

Wouldn't have been the first time HG tried this. Read: That time he got dunked by the AI and banned said AI for "breaking silicon policy".

He was the one banned IIRC

There's more administration red tape and bullshit on /tg/station than any Hospital or Care Center I've ever worked at.

bgo was reinstated ages ago

none of this thread was useful
