About the question about what meta is for.
In theory, meta is for cross-wiki project coordination. It used to be a bit of a refuge, things could be discussed there that would get you indeffed on Wikipedia. The user base was highly sophisticated. That's changed.
It is now a place for meta administrators -- and it's easy to get elected there -- to do Whatever They Please, to exercise power over others. They will tolerate nutso criticism, like that from Ottava or Mbz1, perhaps it amuses them, but if one seriously and sanely criticizes a steward or administrator there, with evidence -- and civilly -- indef is just one button push away, take a look at my block log there. See if it makes any sense.
In any case, once an admin gets exercised about Mbz, she's toast. Used to be there were stewards and admins who would investigate and undo the worst blocks. Apparently they are gone, busy elsewhere.
Herby will cheerfully block you, Tarc, take that seriously.
