One word if nuffen becomes an admin again : dissillusion. At the very least.
What the dev team fails to realise is that bad (and I'm not targetting anyone in particular) admins will make people choose other servers, private servers run primarily by individuals and not donations.
I wish to warn them that even if the devs make this mod for free, donations are needed to keep the official servers up and running. In the end, they can't show too much disrespect towards the community, just as the community cannot ask too much from devs. Having nuffen back is going to make MANY people angry, so I would say it's better if he was officially banned from adminland, at least for a short time.
