No.
I am asserting that polices, while they may have been well intentioned, have
the net effect of being a bureaucratic nightmare that makes it a virtual
impossibility that any course of action against an admin by a non-admin will
succeed.
That policies which were designed to safeguard admins from deliberate
harassment have become twisted into opposition of any investigation of admin
conduct whatsoever.
I'm forwarding this to en-l because I want these words to be clear to
everyone.
Cheers,
Parker.
