:You're not a moron. :-) I prefer to stay silent about that in the ruling, though, the same as I prefer to stay silent about assuming good faith in the ruling. By not stating it, it does not mean that it is true or not true. I feel that saying it waters down the ruling. My comments and concerns are directed at the named admins in the proposed ruling. I want to make sure that the named admins in the ruling do not think that good intent can be an used as an excuse in the future. ]] 17:01, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

:When has there been any dissent of the decision to block Steve? I think it's well accepted that it was a fair move to ban him for six months Ned. There have been few complaints of the decision and I people realise it was for the best all round, including Steve. ''']<sup>See ] or ]</sup>''' 22:57, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
] '''Administrator changes'''
::Originally, yes, but then Steve came back and asked for a block review. FloNight used the block review request as a rationale to reset the six month block. Steve suffers from panic attacks, and is quick to ask that discussions be closed, out of fear of said discussions making things worse. There have been several users in good standing that have strong objections to the blocking, and no discussion on the matter has been open for a significant amount of time, so it's far from being well accepted. The community is asking to handle this situation, and we're being denied. No request for arbitration, no public vote between arbs, no disclosure of any kind. -- ] 23:24, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
