Clarification is right in the rules thread, please read it since I do not understand what you are asking, seems straight forward to me.

I know what part of the FAQ you're referring to, and obviously answering a question about another user's absence is technically a comment regarding rules or admins. Clarification: is the rule "don't talk about admin actions ever" or "don't talk about admin actions in a way that disrupts other users' experiences?" Because the "long answer" portion goes on a bit about disrupting others' enjoyment of the game and makes it sound like the spirit of the rule is about being disruptive. If someone asks "what happened to [user]?" and I say "oh she got banned for [action]," is that a bannable offense because it's about admin action, or is it not bannable because it's not disruptive? Of course you can't list every type of infraction, but this is one example of how the rules thread really isn't as clear as you're acting like it is, and why people might be confused.

Other admins might be more harsh, some might be more lenient, we all follow our best judgement within the rules.

I didn't mean to start anything talking about inconsistent admin action, I just honestly shoehorn in that Dopp story whenever I can. But now that you say this, I'm pretty concerned. Are you saying that it's literally just down to the individual admin? There happened to be a more draconian admin present that day so one person got in trouble and another didn't? I understand saying "no admin was present" to explain why that would happen, but in comparable situations where an admin was present in each, the outcome isn't the same? Admins all enforcing the same rules are passing different sentences? We let admins just run around using their power with personal bias? Or am I misunderstanding what you meant?
