It's

stuff and while they are happy to assume the rank and power of their
position, their top priority isn't listening to you point out their
shortcomings, it's getting an encyclopaedia built.
Accept that from your point of view the system is crooked and rigged and
get
on with it. Complaining about it only gets
everyone offside.

I couldn't have put it better. [[WP:NOT]] a social experiment - it's an
encyclopedia. For some people, this is too much to accept, but the rest
of us who are here to write an encyclopedia couldn't care less.
To add to this, those who are here to fight vandals also couldn't care less
about half of the WikiLawyering that goes on around here. Sometimes I think
the people involved in that particular sector of the Wiki automagically
assume that they're the only section of the Wiki anymore.
