There's what was it - 500-600 admins? Surely you can't accuse them all
of not caring about the rules? Sure, sometimes people get blocked by
mistake.
I once blocked someone (Sam Spade I think) for a 3RR violation.
Technically speaking I was wrong, but instead of calling me a liar,
Sam engaged in a civil and friendly discussion with me. He pointed out
the differences in the diffs and ended up temporarily not editing the
article in question after he was unblocked.
What I'm trying to say is that you will probably reach a lot more by
not calling ALL admins rogue and saying SlimVirgin is a liar.

"Anyone can edit" - but if Admins don't agree with your edits they will
block you upon a whim.
"If you believe the block is unwarranted email the one who blocked you" -
which will of course be completely useless when you have an admin pushing a
particular POV.
"Or else you can email the Wikien-l mailing list" - except you really
can't,
because it's a clique of admins who couldn't care less about the rules, just
slapping each other on the back for making sure they're the only ones in
Wikipedia. And actually making complaints will get you banned.
YOU ARE ALL A BUNCH OF SORRY HYPOCRITES.

If
all Wikipedia admins are rogue admins, what constitutes a non-rogue
admin?
Does this mean I get to call myself "The Rogue"? I've always wanted a
cool nickname.
