Perhaps you are referring to the Spyhop vs Mudlord fiasco. And Spyhop saying that Mudlord gets preferential treatment since he is an emulator author.
Well frankly Mudlord deserves it more than Spyhop. Mudlord being an emulator author, emu authors are the lifeblood of the forum and the emulation community. While I like both users, Mudlord has given 500x to the community what spyhop has. Other than Spyhop helping users occasionally in the hardware & software section and making us laugh in the spam section you really can't compare the two in terms of contributions. Thats just the way the cookie crumbles.
And while Mudlord may have finally crossed the line where you can no longer tolerate his actions he definitely deserved some vip special treatment.
I wouldn't expect psxauthor, @ruantec or gabest to get infractions if they spammed a thread with an off topic post, and i hope that wouldn't happen. They more than earned the right to get some preferential treatment. That's the absolute least we can do to repay them for dedicating their time to the emulator.
When and if me or other users ever make contributions to the emulation community along the lines of the authors then we too can receive some special treatment.
