Honestly he was more of just being blunt and to the point. Admins aren't meant to just be friends and a lot of users both newer and older are acting like entitled children (not saying any particular ones). Not everything will be explicitly written out and if one has issue they should calmly address it to said admin vs edit warring or threatening. Yes poor communication kills but after so many threats, hostile / demanding messages and etc. we all get stressed and irritable but come back to the site(s) as much as we can. The thing with sockpuppets is around 99.8% aren't simply misunderstood or well intentioned user but just a troll wanting fun or a problem user who wasted their chances thus refuse to change anything.

As each admin is different I can't say what it's like for him or some of others but here's usually what I have on a weekly basis, this is also something I see happen to some other admin when I'm online. I work several very long day usually a minimum of 10 hours away from most social devices in a physical labor job, receive around a dozen messages those days to immediately take care of before I even eat dinner (if I eat) some of which are occasionally threats, several lists of cleanup which can take a while if not by a laptop, some admittedly fun threads, some users demanding they get their way, a user or two who occasionally harass me on other sites in not super active on, help make sure pages I'm following aren't being abused and days off are double that amount along with social obligations. Several admins don't seemingly even get much time they take off to relax but dedicate it to help the wikis we run, I know I haven't had but maybe two hours here and there to even just sit back in months. My point is most us spend a lot of our time trying to keep the site in good shape which has been rewarded with some disrespect and stress, don't get me wrong being an admin definitely can be fun but it's far from as relaxing or easy as some think.
