Everything considered you got off light. If a player has the balls to refuse to comply with the code of conduct due to having their 'honour' or whatever you want to call it hurt by a member of staff then I would usually give them a ban straight off the bat.

There's a reason why I'm an admin - it's because I care about players and want to help out. I make no money from this and seldom get to actually play. Do -NOT- treat us like servants; you have earned no respect and whilst we're happy to give you respect you do not warrant any simply by existing. You have not contributed to server upkeep in any way and have added virtually nothing to the community.

I'm sorry that you had to read this, friend - but you have to understand that we're here to enforce the rules. The rules come above your self-esteem just as they do ours.

Thanks.
