Please, if you are not staff, don't answer questions in this thread, even if you think you know the answer.

Also, please take complains about bans, question about TL as a site, etc to the Website Feedback Forum.

Ok, Hypothetical, to be followed by two questions.

Situation: Flash and Jaedong get knocked out of a HotS Beta tourney in the Semis by IdrA and Destiny, who go on to play the extended series final, which has multiple restarts due to B.net issues, casted by a three-way combo of Orb, Moletrap, and Gretorp.

Question 1: What type of posting receives the most bans?
Question 2: What disaster control measures do you feel would be appropriate to keep TL alive?

That would probably destroy what little faith and confidence I have remaining in Sc2 and Blizzard. I'd just ignore it and focus only on Dota.

I think it's likely that admins can ban themselves. Staff who are not admins cannot ban themselves because the TL ban system does not allow staff to ban other staff.

What would happen if say, SonUvBoB or R1CH went insane overnight and banned all the banlings and other staff below the level of admin, then banned Nazgul and Jinro and all the other admins and then maybe slapped IP bans on all of them?

Hypothetically.

Then it would get ugly. Coders make their own rules. Liquid`Meat would also get involved. It would be like a giant coding cage match.

Because we can do no wrong. baahahaha.
No, but in all seriousness, only higher level admins can even ban staff so what would be the point? They'd just sit there until heyoka or someone higher up gets around to it.
But if there are staff issues, we do have website feedback.
