It looks like Martin unbanned it, which was a bad idea.
Not I. Anthere unblocked the account, after receiving the password to it from our anonymous friend in some manner. She tells me that she's changed the password to lock him out: see user:mediator for her explanation. Anthere's a bona fide contributor, so I don't think we need to be fearful about the issue.
It might help if we relaxed a little. I intend to lead the way in this by opening a can of beer. Mmm, intoxicating. :)
We can talk about the idea of role accounts *here*
Well, we can, but it would make more sense to me to use
http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role_account
for the concept in general, and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/user:mediator
for the specific proposed account. Most of the discussion has been going on there so far. I continue to dislike the idea, but since Anthere and Eclecticology, both of whom I respect, think it has merit, I think it's wise to wait and see where they go with it before dismissing it [sic].
