I think you are mistaking hostility with criticism, my good man.

I'd also appreciate it if you stopped telling us that we don't know what Ly's been through and we're simply judging Ly by his words. Neither you nor Ly know what the other people on this wiki have been through. I'm sure plenty of people here have gone through tough times. And here on the wiki, our words are the only things we have to judge each other by, really.

However, Ly, for whatever reason, was unable to control his emotions, it would seem. According to you, he allowed his problems to interfere with the way he behaves towards people who are not involved in his life aside from the wiki.

The situation is that Ly was rude to me, he was rude to Jack, he was rude to Legal, some of his comments disrespected the rest of the admin team, and he talked down to other members of the community. In a similar fashion to you, he demanded that they show him respect, but for the sole reason that he was an admin.

Despite all these issues, you have not given one single reason for "forgiving" Ly. You have only said that we need to put all that aside and love and respect him for absolutely no reason. People need to earn my respect, mate, and "love" is an extraordinarily strong word. You also say that we need to give Ly a second chance. Again, you show your ignorance of the situation by ignoring the fact that we already gave Ly a second chance. When he wrongly banned Dragonhunter, I discovered that Dragonhunter was not at fault. Ly lashed back at me and, when presented with the true facts, he backed down and announced that he was retiring. Yet, he returned. I think I'd consider that giving him a second chance, don't you?

And it's not like we're stopping Ly from coming back. Sure, he can't apologise himself, it seems, but he can come back any time he wants.

One last question, if you wouldn't mind answering it: If you're not Ly or someone close to Ly (which would obviously make you biased in this ordeal), how would you know what problems he is going through in real-life, or was that just an assumption?
