this is what the Wiki needs - a cleanse. There were, simply put, too many moderators, and not enough moderating. Too many administrators, not enough administrating. Furthermore, with so many people being staff members, and with the requirements for being a staff member being so low (Apparently only being 'has a lot of edits' and 'is nice'), staff members were losing respect. When staff members lose respect, they cannot police the site efficiently - they are disobeyed constantly. When the site cannot be policed correctly, it enters a state of chaos and anarchy, and, most of all, corruption.

We saw that corruption before, with Dynasty. We saw what it did to the wiki, and, while I cannot speak for others, I would do anything to make sure that corruption does not manifest itself in the Wiki once more. If that means that lose my position as an administrator, then so be it.
