Part of being an authority figure on any website will include repeated attacks and criticisms from people. You will always have somebody playing the antagonist, either attempting to criticise and/or defame you in any way, simply because it's possible and they can and want to. I disagree that Caysie, LED, and anybody else that you mentioned were deliberately going so far as to defame you, but I do believe that they have some criticisms regarding you. Whether they are v alid or not, that's not yours to interpret. We've seen it time and time again with our own staff. Chat moderator makes a decision, 25% of chat disagrees, and next thing you know it's one chat mod vs. 25% of chat.

I'm not entirely sure where I'm going, but I want you to know that you are always going to be facing opposition as an authority figure, and the best course of action is to simply ignore it. Keep in mind, you may not own or have made the board, but as an administrator, you do represent it, and that is where I believe Caysie's and others's concerns may lie. I accept this. I suppose this was a bad way to try to clear up confusion/concern.
