Well, in my view, if incivility in an admin is a sign of other problems (in the spectrum of stress to burnout to overestimation of own ability to handle awkward people) it is indicative of something serious about suitability to the role. If it is the result of a long campaign of trolling that has finally got an answer in kind, then it is a sign just of human fallibility. Despite a few cases of high profile, the ArbCom of my time was certainly sympathetic with admins, and wary of people who were not obviously working for the good of the project saying "I was disrespected". That said, it's a grey area, and has probably become more murky over time. We don't want and never have wanted cussing admins.
