It's sad to see this happen in a community as friendly as this. I've only been editing for a few months, but I checked on the wiki for quite some time before that. Seeing how nice everyone was made want to help out too. When I started editing I made my fair share of mistakes, but when any of the admins or the other editors pointed out my mistakes they were always kind and polite. Never have I felt offended by any of the admin's warnings. I knew I made a mistake and took full responsibility for it. So I can't understand how anyone could be rude to them just because they are doing their unpaid job of managing the wiki. They just help the wiki in an act of altruism, not because they are paid.

Since I've been here I've seen a few people blocked. But if you check their message wall and their block log you can see that everyone blocked has been warned at least twice before they were blocked. If you are rude towards others and ignore the admin's warning, you're obviously gonna get blocked, it shouldn't come as a surprise. In my opinion, Fearless Diva, who was the only admin for quite some time has and is doing a great job. She has always been nice and respectful towards everyone, she doesn't deserve all the harassment she has been getting. No one deserves any kind of harassment, but especially her, who has only been caring for the well being of the wiki. And telling someone to kill themselves is totally outrageous, suicide is a serious thing and something that shouldn't be taken as a joke in any case. Please be mindful of other's mental health, you never know if the other person is having trouble coping with their life or having suicidal thoughts, so telling them to kill themselves could be triggering.

It's really immature to attack a person just because you disagree on the block. If you feel you were banned unjustly, you should contact them on neutral ground and be civilized. But harassing the admins and uploading offensive pictures is absolutely not okay. By uploading this kind of pictures, not only do you prove the admin's point, but you also draw other people who don't wanna see that into your little "mutiny".

Luckily, this whole situation has been resolved by our hardworking admins. They had to set aside whatever they were doing in their real life and come here to fix a situation that shouldn't have even happened in the first place. I hope that this doesn't happen again and people start being more considerate.

Finally, I want to thank all the admins and editor who have been helping to resolve the situation and keeping this a friendly community. Thank you, really!
