Breaking out of third-person, I will say that if my past behavior is the only thing standing in my way, then that is being held against me at the wrong time. It is, as I've said, a separate issue. The only way it could negatively impact a staff member is if that behavior would cause said staff member to abuse his position, which '''NO ONE HERE BELIEVES I WOULD DO!''' You want to see a change in behavior? Well this issue needs to be taken care of first. And it takes two to tango. I'm not going to shrink myself and continue kneeling down to a bunch of jerks. If someone treats me with hostility, of course I am going to become upset by this. Attack someone, and he will defend. Especially when no one else will defend him. I ask that you think of all the ''good'' I have done and still do for the Wiki, for once. That is what determines if someone should be in a position to maintain the Wiki on a higher degree than another. Not the person's "behavior."}} | Breaking out of third-person, I will say that if my past behavior is the only thing standing in my way, then that is being held against me at the wrong time.

{{TheSilentHero|time=15:09, 10 February 2015 (UTC)|mac=I am quite neutral on this. I wasn't here before you became inactive, so I don't know anything about that. Here's how I see it: | |||
*You were an admin before and have been active for some months, which was required to get back your rights. On one side, I would say: "give him back his rights", but on the other side, there are more editors here who have been active for a longer time and did not get admin powers yet (nor did they ask for them). | |||
*Being an admin doesn't really give you more things to do. Yes, you can move images and delete pages, but when need to do that, you can just message an admin. And yes, you can block vandals, but when I compare this wiki to, for example, SmashWiki, there is almost no vandalism. | |||
*I personally don't think your attitude matters much for becoming an admin or not. (Though I would prefer it if you didn't write things in All Caps). | |||
So, basically, I see no reason not to give your rights back, but there isn't really a reason to do so, either.}} | |||
