This sort of affairs should not have happened, really. Problem was the perspectives, due in part to the international nature of this wiki (the international nature is good, but it does create problems inherent to diversity). What is a joke or acceptable to some of us is unacceptable to others. This convolutes the argument further. By arguing that many wikians were offended (we can't tell), Jimee would be right, perhaps even lenient, but if nobody cared and we laughed it out, Jimee would be unreasonably tyrannical, for example.

In truth, the whole handling of the events were massively misguided and badly carried out, both on Jimee's part and his accuser's part. There are better ways to explain things. But nobody would sit down to talk diplomatically, everyone (including Jimee) were just interested in pushing their own case.

Everyone really has to learn to sit down and talk. Removing an admin, even legitimately, will cause an upheaval.
