Admins regretting the decision seems like a pretty obvious outcome though of course, I'm not the one rushing to make a decision on something that is so "urgent".

Hype didn't even have admin site access, you didn't need to make a decision so quickly. You can go on and on about "circumstances" but the facts are hype was in no position to leak anything so you had basically all eternity to conduct a fair and proper investigation.

And my metaphor is relevant if you get someone to make a rushed decision it's going to be in general the poorer outcome and then something they will regret. According to Melt, Ale made it seem more urgent than it ultimately clearly was, that to me just seems like people trying to rush through a decision that ultimately demoted hype without actually giving people time to digest the facts and make an informed decision (again something you had time to allow for).
