I understand on some levels where your coming from Monty. But from an antagonistic perspective you used to cause havoc on the regular office on a regular basis, and had consequently been banned. Yet, you didn't cause a fuss. Is it because you feel new people are power-hungry new faces demanding respect; because if that is the case they wouldn't have their apps accepted for admin. We try to do our job to the best of our abilities and still be able to have fun on the server. I personally as an admin have an extremely low tolerance for pity bullshit, but other admins have a higher tolerance to it, namely Saper(PiLL). I can relate to where your coming from but my advice to you is to simply follow the rules. You don't have to follow them like an orthodox religion, but read them as they are written and you should have no problems with any admin.
