#:I reckon if Ac2k got wind of me getting demoted as CO, I would never have heard the end of it. As it is, things were taken to the extreme, to the point of him eventually getting banned for harassment, but obviously that’s not the issue being had here. While being harassed, I handled it poorly, and was driven into depression, and eventually my 3-day hiatus, during which I was left to think about how I could handle issues better. My hiatus would have been longer, but Ultimate’s announcement caused me to cut that short. After taking time to quietly observe the responses to various issues by other admins, including upon Ac2k, it became clear to me what I should have done from the beginning. This same mentality could have and should have been applied to Brian. Instead I let the anger and frustration take over, and ended up losing my badge because of it. I was however able to get a chance to put what I learned to the test, as about a week before the ban, Ac2k came after me again over a content dispute, and was refusing to back down and wait for a response, which I needed to discuss with Discord before providing. You can look at my talk page to see this.

#:I don’t hold grudges, and I certainly don’t blame Brian or Ac2k for what has happened, as much as I’d like to. It’s easy to blame others, but in the end it comes down to how you deal with it. I know that now, and I thought I might have adequately proved that with my current talk page. I have made my improvements, but my greatest fear is that nobody will want to trust me ever again because I’ve had these massive failures, and that’s how it looks to me right now.

#'''Minor oppose.''' This is mostly a quick and under-researched opinion, so it may change, but here's my sense: You want this too badly. You talk constantly about your desire for adminship on the Discord as if it's the main reason you're on-wiki. You act as if you feel you ''deserve'' it, rather than that you've ''earned'' it, and that's the wrong viewpoint to have.

#'''Somewhere in the middle between a slight oppose and a full oppose.''' With all due respect, I'm kinda in the same boat as Toomai. Nearly any time an issue is brought up in regards to the wiki on Discord (be it a vandal, a user who means well but clearly isn't following the rules, or anything else), you [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RVAhW4ToLFI subtly] drop your wish to be an admin, and it kinda does give off a vibe that I don't think you want to give. Additionally, I also personally think that just over half a year isn't a long enough time between one's first request and one's second, because not as much can happen in that amount of time, but that's more of a personal opinion.
