Minus the spamming issues, I agree with everything listed here. The spamming issue isn't technically an issue unless a user like Pingu comes into play, but I respect your perspective on the issue (even if I don't act like it :P).

What concerns me the most is how users react to being demoted. With the exception of Orlando, who is normally inactive, nearly every user who has been demoted has either "retired" or left the wiki. When we block them for complaining, they suddenly decide they want to come back. Regarding this issue, I think we just need to toughen up and say "It was ultimately your choice to leave, and since you made that choice, we are not going to let you back in just because you realized quitting was a mistake." Should they sockpuppet, we should just keep blocking and ignoring like we have been doing, without trying to insinuate any arguments.

The categorization issue isn't all that serious, thought it still occurs every now and again. Things like "Notice me senpai" are unacceptable, though categories such as "Tropical Cyclones" and "Hypercanes" are okay, in my opinion.

Regarding discipline in chat, let me just say, I try to punish users who violate the guidelines, though other users don't always think it's fair (and it's not just the person in trouble). For example, I tried kicking Orlando from chat for posting an uncensored curse word, though when I did, Darren did not think it was fair and tried defending him. And, when Jack gave Nuno a warning for his inappropriate behavior, Money did not think it was time to give him a warning. In addition, when we blocked Nuno, Money thought the block was too extreme and should have been shortened to a chat ban. So, can you see how this is causing issues. If you ask me, staff should not try to undermine one another when issuing warnings and blocks, as it should go without question, and instead support the punishment because it was just.
