I'm not accusing ReFresh right now, but most of the times if an admin or higher wants to have fun he must break a rule, it's like a custom nowadays. Let me remind you the "mod" in general is supposed to be fun, not the admin commands, maybe I'm wrong but I think they exist so you keep a server out of injustice, not bring the injustice by yourself(generally speaking, as ReFresh's decision was not the end of the world).
ReFresh, yes many times admins have done this but now you got reported for it, that's why they're jumping on you. If someone kills a person 1 day and you do the same 1 month later and get "caught", you will be talked about that moment, that's all.
