Lemme address a few of your points, @"Sus-AF":

• The Admins & I were testing the Melon Mine by constantly RDMing each other. Before that, we were testing player models by RDMing each other.
  
• The bans were not arbitrary. I was cleared by the Admins to ban every last one of them. "We are tired of your shit" is pretty much the only way to describe the Admin's opinion of the BANTZ crew and Russ.
  
• Referring to the BANTZ crew as "respected, veteran, members of the community who rarely cause an uproar" is in stark contrast to the overwhelming staff opinion.
