When i joined in, my line of questioning was:
1- Absolution's record (joined 3h ago) states to be in the server longer than Racist (1h ago).
2- Assumed no one banned the other based on the fact that scribble told me about those 2, and that if a kick or ban was involved he would have settled it with an admin abuse immediately from 1 admin onto another.
3- I specifically asked abso if he afk'd. He replied that he went to spec for 5 mins and by the time he came back racist had already switched the map.
4- I then ask Racist if he did his due diligences of CONTACTING the afk admin before swapping the map. He replied with No. He did not write the afk admin in spec if the admin is truly afk, or back or anything.

So I rewarded absolution with seniority because with the info I had at the time, it was possible for all we know that abso was in spec watching someone or simply had to take a goddamn dump, and Racist took seniority without following a friendly protocol of asking the other admin in spec... (note: this is a Gentlemen's agreement.)

I have to check the demo to see how long he was afk, but based on the info I had at hand at the time, racist's approach looked like a "oh he afk'd just now? ima jack his senior admin fast before he comes back and not even ask him"... which seemed unethical at the time.

Think of it this way, if you went to spec to spectate a player for example, and someone didnt even bother writing u (not even privately) to ask if u are afk without you revealing urself to be watching, and then proceeded in swapping the map on you, how would you feel?

tl;dr:
Fucking ZMod.
Stop acting like fucking kids over seniority, it's a privilege and common courtesy system among admins... Argueing PUBLICLY in the server over such a technicaly scenario (borderline set up btw...) and making ibis look like it has crappy admins that cant work together... Good job guys. Good job.

1 last thought:
Abso has been in the server at the time for exactly 3 hours and 37 minutes (checked server log).

A 5 minute break to take a piss or cig or drink or internet dc compared to that amount of time ACTIVE on the server?
Just feels like someone was too hasty to jack seniority instead of working with the other admin and requesting nicely to change the map to freshen up the pace.
