Common sense and putting a stamp of approval on irregularities are two
different things. You are not a sucker if you follow the rules and you a
fool if you think you have some special license to break them. Nevertheless,
the slack is cut a bit from time to time.

While seniority does not exist on Wikipedia

and certain >editors such as Adam Carr have a degree of favor.
Right, the two wikipedias. One is official (only read and followed by
suckers) and the other is run by favor. Quite an admission from an
arbitrator. So your advice is to shrug your shoulders and walk away?
Or get some "favor" so the protection can be lifted. Failing that,
make some sockpuppets and have some fun, no-one will take action until
the atmosphere has been thoroughly poisoned!
Its who you know, not what you know! What a way to run wikipedia!
