You and Matt have one of two choices:
1. terminate my account and admit you have abused not only the rules that are posted but every rule of decent and humane behavior;
2. reinstate my posting privileges conditional only to the posted rules which apply to each and every member of the community, admitting you have made a mistake and abused and discriminated against many members, myself being one of them.
You can show the community that even you are human beings, subject to the same abilities and disabilities of any human being, hence prone to err and make mistakes, or
show the community that you are above the rules you have created for the members and are acting like gods of some kind, filled with pride, selfishness and reckless disregard for the "mere mortals", which, by the way, are paying your salaries.
Your duties as admins don't excuse you from being wrong.
