While I can't weigh in on this being abuse or not, I still wanna put in that there's no need for this kind of behavior from an admin. Sure it's maybe this "one time", but exceedingly more and more admins are finding it amusing to slap themselves post-game. While it doesn't actually affect players, it HAS the potential to effect server stability (this was brought up by a clan member in a stickied thread in the ADMIN section; which I'd cite but unfortunately I don't have access to it), and it's certainly not sparing use of privileges. Don't be cute about your job as admin, just DO YOUR JOB. Admins that find a need to use such childish behavior to get back at a player lose all my respect, and while that may not effect those admins, I'm sure my feelings are shared among other Regs/Admins/Clan.

While you may have saved face from an admin abuse, this just tells me you give into trolling players. Don't give them that satisfaction.
