I'm not entirely sure if this has been brought up before on the forums, but it's something worth discussing.
One of the servers I used to frequent had a rule that admins were not allowed to handle their own case. The reasoning being that if they did, they'd do so with a certain amount of bias, and that if a punishment were needed, wouldn't deliver it. I've read, reread, and rereread the admin protocols for Colonial Marines, but it states nothing about this. Please tell me if it's an unwritten rule or something like that.
Should Admins be able to Handle their own Case?

it's SORT OF a unwritten rule, It's just smart if you didn't. Not only can you produce bias but almost complaints against
yourself.
I atleast kept my self to that rule when I was trial staff.

No, and most staff know that they shouldn't be handling their own case.
There are a few exceptions, such as if noone else is online, or if your a head.

I don't think I've ever seen a situation like this pop up yet, but it's obvious you shouldn't.
