The admin and moderation team base their decisions on things that happen on the forum. They aren't all buddy buddy with every member outside of the forum, and the fact that someone is a top bloke when they're away from the keyboard really means shit all. You make decisions based on the information that you have, and people will inevitably complain either way.
I don't think those of you who are complaining realise how shit moderating a forum actually is. You get the fuzzies knowing you're contributing to a community, and occasionally people thank you, but most of the time you just get abused (by PM or on the board itself). There have been remarkably few incidents on here since the forum started, and frankly I doubt any of you could do better.
