Just gonna point a few things out, since this is actually pretty biased and leaves out some arguably important details. First and foremost, I'd been making bureaucratic decisions for BB and DS for about a year and a half, which is why they were comfortable with promoting me. See how Sol signed this blog with "Warhammer 40,000 Fanon Wiki Administrator"? Yeah, that's only because I pushed for his (and Dirge's) promotion. DS had pretty much no idea who Han was at the time.

"We had tried to reason with the newly promoted bureaucrat beforehand"

That's a stretch, at best. Han's idea of "reasoning" with me was expressing his worry in ridiculously vague, almost comical terms, then saying "I know you'll do the right thing" and leaving chat. At no point did anyone directly ask me to demote myself. In fact, Cal and Supah both said they would remain on the wiki even if other admins left... then they went ahead and cloned the wiki.

As for the Dirge demotion, it wasn't actually "a joke", nor was it abrupt. Having DS demote Dirge was something I had discussed with Cal and Han off and on, starting months beforehand. Cal reminded me in a Skype call and I demoted Dirge, then felt bad and reverted the demotion. I called it a joke basically as a cover-up.

On to the DS/BB hate: just stop. If you want to demote me, fine, but they actually put work into founding and building up this wiki. The least you can do is respect that. Having them demoted just because you didn't like some decisions they made and want them to be more active is a bit much.
