:::::::::As it currently stands, there is no need to change the rollback policy, because as I have explained multiple times, rollback is to be used for bad faith edits, and deliberate refusal to obey an admin's instructions is bad faith. In fact, insubordination is a blockable offense on any wiki.

How can you justify misuse of rollback as "spirit of the rule" when there is a line in [[SmashWiki:Rollback]] that clearly says otherwise? '''[[User:Ac2k|<span style="color: red;">Awesome</span>]] [[User talk:Ac2k|<span style="color: red;">Cardinal 2000</span>]]''' 16:53, 1 April 2018 (EDT)

:The spirit of rollback is to easily and quickly get rid of bad edits. The letter of the rule is that it should be limited to obvious vandalism only. As with any rule on the wiki, bending it is probably okay as long as most people agree it's the right move in context.
:That is all that will be said for now. At least seven different users are tired of dealing with your inflexible, can't-let-it-go mentality on the subject. Kindly adjust your attitude by the time you return next month.
