The unfortunate system we currently have

Admins

Why is it that when you get muted, you can't message ANY admin who isn't your friend? This allows admins to mute, without discussing it with anyone, and without any appeal method (unless im missing something, i searched "profile" but you cant appeal mutes, only bans). 
So that leaves people muted with 2 options: serve the mute, or make an alt to talk.
But alts are perma-banned upon creation, and cant be used to talk. 
So admins can mute whoever, whenever, and they cannot say anything about it, they just have to serve it.

You've heard all the comparisons to nazi culture before, so i'll spare you that, but when you have incompetent mods like ExGirlfriend mixed in with the competent ones like Edd, it becomes a dilemma. 
I'd like to have a discussion on this, however I know that the admins will take it down the second they see it, as they can't handle the power entrusted to their fragile ego's to be called into question. But if that proves to not be the case, awesome, and I'd love to hear thoughts below :)
