I voted yes because I don't really think the rule makes sense. Why is it in place? Because of the possibility an Admin might abuse his/her power in favor of his/her party? If so, then that makes no sense at all because Admins, while not allowed to be party leaders are allowed to join parties, correct? What makes you think an admin who WOULD abuse their power when having the position of party leader would refrain from abusing said power as a party member?

Additionally, even if an admin DID abuse his/her power, it's not like they could really get away with it. If they start banning people who start other parties/are against their party, I think it would be rather obvious, and I'm quite sure the rest of staff would step in.

The rule just doesn't make sense to me. Perhaps there's a scenario I'm not seeing, and if there is I would be very happy if someone would point it out to me.

In short, I don't think the rule should be changed this one time for BoB, I think the rule should be changed, period.
