If an admin is going to hold the position, they need
to be on top of things
much better. Personally, if I was an admin, after such a total screw up, I
would have resigned and reapplied in a few months. Why? Because it would be
admiting I had completely screwed up, and that I was willing to own up to
the mistake and take full responsibility for my actions.
Except for the detail that it wasn't anything like a "total screw up."
Second accounts are barely tolerated at best, not a "right."
