This really is behavior an admin should engage in. Between this and the rest of the complaints about Cyde on his RfC, it seems to me he's in a hurry to get desysopped.
The current RfC was created by a recurrent religious censorship vandal who was upset that I was the one to step forward and block him when other admins wouldn't. If that means I'm in a hurry to get desysopped, then so be it.
That Cyde blatantly ignored guidelines and policies on disruption to the point that it is essentially vandalism, altering dozens of userpages with a text box
I didn't alter anyone's userpage. I only altered one single template. If you don't want your userpage to change in appearance then keep it in your userspace and don't grab all of your content from templates.
that is not, was not, and never has been on his page, and is completely unapologetic for it, is not funny to me at all.
It's a wiki, that means that anyone can edit. There's no requirement that you have to be using a template to be able to edit it. That borders on a violation of WP:OWN. By the same token should I not be able to edit any country articles besides [[United States]] because I don't live in them?
When Cyde became an admin, it was because he said he was done with userboxes. With this and other complaints, I'm increasingly unsure this guy should have a mop.
This past day I have used the "mop" to block over a dozen vandals and clean up vandalism. Guess what I haven't used the "mop" for ... anything that could possibly be considered an abuse.
