Well, he's getting "demoted", but it won't change anything at the core, given it's just to Admin. I'm the same as you, support, but I know in the end, nothing changes. Really flawed, to be honest. Really much so.

In a small pseudo rant, I'm really surprised people can be tolerant of this. REALLY surprised. You have so much laid at your feet in terms of undeniable evidence, including multiple counts of ToU violations from Wikia's official rules, and all you wish to do, is downgrade the user to Admin, when it does nothing, and no one learns anything from it. The latter part being caused, mainly due to this tolerance and support in keeping the user.

I've said it twice before already, because it's frankly unbelievable that the events of this proposal turned into this, especially after a supposedly "final warning" in 2014, and then multiple infractions afterwards. What happened to the final warning and why isn't anyone regarding it against this user? I don't wish to tell the staff, or anyone how to do their job, or think, or anything, don't get me wrong, as it's not my place, but there is something very wrong here.

On that topic, if you're scared of "losing another staff member" look towards others who are willing to prove themselves, and HAVE proven themselves, rather than trying to keep someone who's repeatedly shown shaky understandings and grips on their user rights, despite multiple warnings and the like. You're the top user of a Wiki. You should be under the highest scrutiny, given you represent the place as a whole, and things like what we've been presented with, show a clear lack of responsibility in the position.

And finally, I just again, don't get the tolerance to this. ESPECIALLY after we banned a certain user immediately FOR LIFE, after they admitted to pulling an IP stunt like this. I don't get why this was treated any differently, (Past the demotion proposal) despite it being the same situation.

Thought I was done speaking about this originally, and excuse my ranting, but I'm just baffled. Lost for true words, really, past what I've repeated.
