I'll post here what I just posted there, so there's no confusion about whether I meant what I said.
I am serious about that intent to remove myself from the admin team in protest. If LulzKiller's ban is undone, I think folks are going to have to decide which of us you want on the admin team. (And, honestly, I have another wiki where I'm founding admin that takes up much more of my not-earning-a-living time.)

I, on ATT, Wrote:I have two public comments to make.
First, to LulzKiller and the ATT admin team:
I am not happy about somebody gloating about being correct.
I am doubly unhappy about being associated, however indirectly, with someone who would gloat about being correct.
In my opinion, LulzKiller crossed the line.
If I had bureaucrat rights here, I would have removed myself from the admin team in protest.
Second, to the Stewards:
I see that LulzKiller has been globally banned on all Miraheze wikis.
http://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?t ... =&subtype=
This is exactly what I was worried about when I asked what I did during the RfC for Miraheze's Code of Conduct.
http://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Talk:Cod ... sive.22.3F
There was only one reply to my question and proposal, in which revi stated "Enforcement section says System administrators decide on case by case. Also this is mostly targeted towards Meta (where the coordination is happening), IRC, and Phabricator, so each wiki community is free to have their own standard on their expectation for their users."
As I pointed out earlier, All The Tropes is not Meta. ATT does not have any policy against strong language, and does have a published policy encouraging users to call out the people in charge when users think the people in charge have erred.

In my opinion, banning LulzKiller appears to be a violation of Miraheze's Code of Conduct.
I am serious about that intent to remove myself from the admin team in protest. If LulzKiller's ban is undone, I think folks are going to have to decide which of us you want on the admin team.
