This decree is nuts This decree in a nutshell:
Consider the possibility that when you are prevented from promoting your agenda by an administrator, it is because they promote the opposite agenda, rather than because you are violating policy .
The badge of the Rouge Admin

Rouge admins are a cabal of administrators who stand in the way of Misplaced Pages's true purpose, which is to disseminate new and controversial theories, publicise hitherto suppressed views about establishment figures, document the stories which the Cowardly Corrupt Capitalist Communist Fascist Masonic Antisemitic Zionist Anti-Hellen Epsilonist Islamist Islamophobic Black Whitey Gay Homophobic (please check all that apply) ...news media refuse to touch, help the small businessman to achieve the Armenian (sic) Dream, and bring to public attention the "Holy Grail" which the said groups refuse to endorse.

When the fearless blogger-after-truth stands alone before the might of Vested Interests and only Misplaced Pages can bring the The Truth™ to the teeming multitudes, when the web forum hits thirty members and just 9,970 more will earn the webmaster a cent a click from banner advertising, when the board of Megadodo Publications rejects the call for resignation of the entire board backed by the holder of nearly two shares of common stock—that is when Misplaced Pages's purpose can at last be realised.

And then it is that the Rouge Admins step in. Based on the flimsiest of grounds—policy and consensus—they require not The Truth™ but that which is verifiable. They will not accept the word of anyone other than a reliable source, no matter that all such sources are part of the great conspiracy to suppress The Truth™. They further demand that the dissenting opinions of those who believe The Truth™ is actually complete bollocks be given equal weight. And they delete, delete, delete. Heedless of the hordes of anonymous keep votes at Articles for Deletion, discounting the legion of brand new users who have registered just so they can ensure The Truth™ is told, they accept without question the assurance of fellow rouge admins that The Truth™ is unverifiable, incapable of being covered neutrally, unsourced, unproven. They resist perfectly reasonable demands for shrubberies before critical content can be added. And when more brand new users come along to rectify the situation by creating new articles with much better titles, the Rouge admins race right back in to delete them again, to block the new users and lock the articles.

All the pleading in the world falls on deaf ears. It's as though the Rouge admins do not realise that when Jimbo said that neutral point of view was non-negotiable, he didn't mean it to stop The Truth™ being told! (And, well, even if he has stepped in numerous times to, um, enforce it, it's only because... the Rouge admins have poisoned his mind and misrepresented the situation on IRC. Or something.)

The Rouge admins, scourge of fair play, defenders of the powerful, in the pay of corporate America—they insidiously subvert Misplaced Pages's true mission, the mission Jimbo surely had in mind and simply forgot to add to the five pillars. Damn those Rouge admins!

Note that although one may initially think that the Rouge admins are so named due to their sneaky and renegade nature (similar to, for example, the rogue character class in Dungeons & Dragons), in fact their name stems from the red or pink makeup they use to add color to their cheeks. Other theories pertaining to the origins of the group's name include legends of blood rituals at which successful initiates are inducted into the order after bathing in the blood of abducted newcomers who have had their heads bitten off.

Notes

  1. The list of affiliation groups may be expanded to suit individual taste, for example those people who don't even belive in any god and those people who believe erroneously that morality in some way relates to universal human qualities
  2. Freedom, motherhood, apple pie and to go at least six weeks without being invaded by Mongol hordes.
  3. Corporate America, please contact the original author for paying-in details. All major currencies accepted, we apologise that receipts cannot be provided.
