Others think that his use of non-standard warnings

take vandalism seriously enough (does every admin have to be at the

I can understand people choosing not to vote for admins they don't
admire, but opposing on these weird grounds is... well, weird.
Heck, using non-standard warnings (albeit perhaps not as flowery as the
one cited) is something to be admired, not complained about.
We use the {{testN}} series far too often, and in cases where it's
inappropriate. Admins being willing to think for themselves and treat
the people they speak to as human beings is a Good Thing.
Entirely agree. I took a look at that RfA and thought "Why the hell do
people apply to be admins. Nobody needs to put up with that much crap". i
The process needs improving.
