User blog:Mira Laime/How to Deal With a Bad Bureaucrat - Community Central - Wikia
I thought I'd share this article for those of you who resent abuse from people who like to push their weight around.
I understand perfectly well that this article is written to address people who have some grief with someone inside this community. However, the psychology of dealing with an abusive bureaucrat applies to everybody and everywhere. Not just to an online community.
Sometimes, you have to stick it to the man who's bad but I don't think you should seek to stick it to anyone just to get an ego satisfaction.
Two wrongs don't make a right. Anytime you have to stick something to someone, do it as an act of self preservation. It's better to walk away from a fight than to fight for the sake of fighting.
Remember if you're doing waging war against someone, you can inflict some painful damage but if you're doing it to someone just to prove you can do damage, realize that they can come back and hurt you even worse.
If you're out to make someone lose face because they did that to you, they're going to come after you.
The ego's just not worth it.
