Suspension from administrator powers should really be more serious than something as petty as this, now, I know what you are going to say, yes, im Plasmus's friend and you're going to believe my opinion is biased because of that

But you believing my opinion and anyone elses opinion is biased and immediately debunking it without even looking in to it to see if it really is biased or not is just plain ignorance at the same time, I don't mean it in a harsh way, I don't dislike you, you bring up good points.

If you and your friend were goofing off one day, and you guys were, admittedly, acting out of turn, saying some bad things, and doing not so bad stuff but not too great stuff either like pranking people, and it suddenly causes a big fuss, you're probably going to have his back.

But if in that fuss becomes a huge misconception, something like "He's been pranking people for years!" etc etc, you are his friend, you are around him pretty often, you're going to know that that's not your friend who is a well known pranker, he just did it occasionally this time while goofing off, you shouldnt defend him for something wrong and he should apologize, i agree, but dont let the misconception flow through so easily.

More importantly though, onto this problem right here.

Having access to admin powers is a real problem with the community because the community won't allow you to do anything with it without seeing it as abusing, unless its benefitting them (Come on, who would report you for pooting people if you let them try out any style they wanted upon asking? Thats basicly this whoole community, lol)

So this situation right here, I am a little shock someone went to depth with this to report it, but at the asme time im not TOO surprised.

In the servers we were in, there were a lot of people who took what we were doing in that skype call a little differently, earlier, there were swords spawned into the game and many more becuase we were just goofing around, you had the occasional people who didnt know what was going on and mindlessly yelled Hacker, people who did and yelled admin abusing, and the other people who didnt see it as admin abusing or hacking, so didnt say anything about it.

It's kindve like one of the edgy jokes people tell, you can tell a joke about Nine-Eleven and some people will laugh, others wont know the joke, and some will get angry about it, its personal preferance.

However, Strife! Is a game, Nine-Eleven wasnt 100% a laughing matter; I could understand if that joke hurt you in some sort of way, by loss or relative or in other ways, but did kactus men killing you in a video game really hurt you? It really shouldn't have.

So mostly, on your end, don't take things so hard and dont make too many misconceptions about it either, he wasnt being an asshole because he was angry, he called you the name douchebag because he was fustrated at you not listening.

BUT, That doesnt mean Plas is also completely right

Plas should have obviously let people had know that he was joking around and playing around iwth his powers, he is going to be responsible for the outcomes of it whether its big or small, and whether its right or wrong.

Dont take some funny stuff admins are doing too seriously all the time, but at the same time, admins should be making sure people know what hes doing and his intention is to joke around and not abuse.
