I don’t think Kinnebian is a bad admin or anything. I’m sure he does a fine job adminning Manuel and he seems like a swell fellow. But it’s unrealistic to expect someone who’s spent 99% of their playtime and 99% of their admin time on Manuel to then hop on Terry, a completely different server with different rules and different culture, and then enforce those rules accurately.
It’s a common theme with the meme of the fearsome “Manuelmin bans”— it’s only a half-joke. The issue is it’s not their fault, it’s like taking a Gestapo officer from 1940s Germany and plopping him into your local mall circa 2023. Fortunately back in Auschwitz during his gas chamber safety protocol training he was given a pamphlet on the mall code of conduct so he knows what he’ll be dealing with. But ask yourself honestly. Inevitably he is going to thwack some skateboarders on the head with his nightstick, yeah? He’s gonna heil on accident during the national anthem. Some fucking accidental discharges are gonna go off along the way here. Because he isn’t a mallcop! He belongs in Auschwitz, not outside a Popeyes in the food court!

We should do a weighted random headmins vote, let God decide
It would somehow manage to pick Birdshot Station for headmin if we did that

What the fuck, why would you compare manual admins to Gestapo officers.

Sinful could've made a similar comparison that got his point across to a lot of people, but instead he decided to make a comparison to actual nazis, and now everyone's talking about that instead of his actual message.
I have a confirmed grand total of 1 merged PR. That basically means I'm a c*der now.
