I am not saying length of service makes someone all-powerful. I'm saying that he's been here for a solid decade, not to mention, is an admin, and maybe he knows something that you don't.

Swearing doesn't prove anything.

He may have been condescending, and that would be wrong of him, but you are suggesting that you know better than an admin, because you're "fresh-faced". Once again, there is no reason to keep outdated and unofficial information. Jaded-ness is completely relevant. Any body who does a tough thing like editing a magazine, or running a business, etc. than they are bound to be jaded from all the stress of constantly dealing with difficult people they must deal with on a almost daily basis. Swearing reveals more than you realize. Power corrupts as the saying goes, you have been here longer do use it far to often as a weapon to beat others over the head.

You might say "I am not saying length of service makes someone all-powerful" but you act like being an admin makes a person better than others. The position goes to those with the most time to spare & most willing of the available candidates of those most active on a particular wikia, you do not necessarily have to be have proper qualifications to become an admin. This means that admins can be pretty much anyone, so their opinions should not count as more or less valid than those new to wikia, but as equal.
