@NYCgleek Well, we'll have to agree to disagree about Jessie1010 being a nice person. But back to the point, I'm not saying that Jessie1010 abusing power makes it okay for Evanf, or anyone to do so. I'm just not very eager to rush to the defense of someone who's essentially getting a taste of their own medicine. I'll use a real life example as an analogy. Let's say there's a bully who terrorizes people smaller than him. Then one day a bigger bully starts terrorizing the bully. Would you be very eager to defend the bully? I doubt it. It doesn't make the bigger bully's behavior okay, it just means the bully doesn't deserve as much sympathy as someone with clean hands.

As for what Jessie1010 did to deserve the original block here, I'm not sure. I don't know the facts behind the situation so I don't know if the original block was justified. My main point in that regard is that the block had nothing to do with this particular discussion, which is made clear.

I can sympathize with a lot of the points you're making to be honest. Like when you talk about holding a grudge, getting even, or doing something out of spite. I think we can both agree that admins shouldn't do that. I'm just not all that sure this is the case here. Whether or not the original block was justified, it had nothing to do with him expressing his opinions here, which is made clear by the fact that the block log I linked to dates back almost 2 years, long before this came up.
