When a user comes in and says a bad word, or insults someone, it's pretty cut and dried that they can be kicked. And with the bot recording, it's easy to say, I kicked X person because they did Y and point to one line and there it is. Other issues that come up are not so pinpointable.

Chat gets rambunctious sometimes and that can be ok; but it can also be not ok is when one person gets going in a way that causes others to get annoyed. The person is asked to stop and does not stop. There is a general sense that they know better but are just plowing ahead because they feel untouchable, with an attitude of "You can't kick me or I'll tell on you and you'll get demoted" .... really???

So sad that here we are debating an (undeserved IMHO) demotion. :(

In these situations, somebody has to do something. Leo does, and ends up hung out to dry because it is hard to point to one line in the log and say 'there, a bad word' or whatever. But at least the times I observed action was warranted. It's hard to draw a line, it takes a judgement call, and it takes stepping up to responsibility.

Please do not demote Leo just because he has the nerve to stand up to people.
