Notice that this is a very strong personal attack, even though you may 
have thought carefully about it (of what I am sure). Especially because it 
judges intentions (basically he wanted consciouly to deceive). This is 
what I DO NOT see as a proper reason for desysoping. However:

Now this is a good reason, no intentions, no hidden motives. I agree that 
*if this is  the case*, de-sysoping him ought to be taken as a serious 
possibility. But I fear there are no adverts at his talk pages but since 
today or yesterday and I fear taking action against someone without using 
the proper channels will end up in a nasty and awful precedent. This is 
for me the main reason to ask

a) That Perl not be de-sysoped for now
b) That if someone feels a sysop is misbehaving, (s)he be told AT HIS/HER 
talk page.
