Not Essie, so forgive me for interjecting here.

The original post that Jack commented on was done June 13, 2013. That's two-and-a-half years ago. Years.

In that entire time, Owen never said anything about it, nor commented again on this wiki until November of 2015. Even when he did return, he didn't even notice the comment from Jack at first. Then, when he does... the first thing Owen does, rather than contact an admin to make a complaint, is threaten Jack.

There is mention of assuming good faith, yet none was assumed on the part of Owen. He didn't follow proper channels to resolve the issue.

I looked at Owen's profile page. He claims to be not only an admin on one site, but a bureaucrat on another. Therefore, he should have known better than to make threats.

Any situation in which there are disagreements should IMMEDIATELY be brought to an admin's attention. But did Owen do this? Despite the fact that he claims to be an admin himself?

No. He did not.

As an admin on several other sites, both wiki and otherwise, I completely agree with Essie's decision. Had Owen come to any of them and made the same threats, I'd have blocked him as well.
