We need better ways of catagorising one another than troll, admin,
left -right, or whatever. These are ambiguous terms, and with the
possible exception of "admin", each person who uses them defines them
differently.
Rather than labeling each other, I'd say it is better to label the
''conduct''. If someone says or does something rude, I think it is the
job of others (particularly admins, and in this case list admins) to
respond to that in a proper manner. Assumably admins themselves would
be above any improper conduct themselves, but unfortunately were all
human. I think this current problem is not so much the act of
whistleblowing, but of how it is responded to. Personally, I would not
have allowed the numerous threads of complaints regarding edit warring
/ page-blocking @ [[feces]], for example (and chose not to read or
respond to them ;)

Perhaps it was a poor choice of words on my part. Replace "troll" with
"problem user".
