 Here I go with my reply. This has been on my mind all weekend. I originally didn't want to vote, as I would feel caught between popular opinion and Game, who I have always considered a friend and still do. And with that, here is my decision.

 I am aware that I have been inactive and haven't seen the full extent of Game's behavior. I haven't been threatened, and the only instances of misconduct I have seen come from screencaps I have been shown. Please forgive me if my information is incorrect.

 - I oppose the outright demotion of Gameuser10 as an admin for several reasons.

 Yes, it's true that Game's behavior is unnerving to the naked eye. It's true that his quotes freak me the heck out, because they come off as more serious than he passes them off to be. And yes, it does seem that he can be a killjoy when it comes to things such as sexual jokes/innuendos. But has he abused his powers as an admin (other than the misuse of his bot, which I believe should be shut down)? No. And I want to give him the benefit of the doubt here, because he could very well be joking when he makes threats and such. That being said, I don't approve of his threats and if they DO continue after this issue is resolved, then I will be inclined to think a little more differently.

Neither side is completely in the right or wrong here. The insults you guys have hurled at him have really disappointed me. I've noticed these kinds of insults towards Game ever since I joined the Wiki, and it bothers me. Game's my friend- he's helped me out when I've been on the verge of self-harm, and he hasn't ever wronged me. I do agree that his being a killjoy (in terms of sex jokes) is aggravating, especially when others don't see the jokes as rule-breaking. And it's not rule-breaking. But I'm not happy with the way other users treat/ have treated him- and those who don't show any remorse REALLY tick me off.

And guys- if he is demoted, then nothing will really change. He'll still quote lyrics, he'll still get annoyed by the sex talk. That seems to be the behavior that bothers eveeryone the most, and by demoting him, you're not preventing that.

His bot should definitely be shut down, because as far as I've seen, it hasn't helped with anything substantial. I'm also wondering if a chat ban isn't in order, if he continues with the threats and bringing a bad vibe to the chat.

I'll support the idea of him being demoted to a patroller, with no banning/promoting rights. But as for a complete demotion? I'm sorry, but I can't support that.
