Intresting... To me this sounds like the Vanidel guy is QQing because he got caught in the middle and lost his "illegal cards". He loses his card and so he has to take it out on the admin and the server.
First of all, the fact that his screenshot mentions that he's done this on several servers and gained all these rare cards shows that he's too comfortable with getting away with having rare cards after finding someone do something illegal as a prize. If any server is in their right damn mind, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be able to keep those illegal "prizes" regardless; being rewarded? - sure! have some obbs, be my guest. However, being rewarded with these rare mvp cards? phreeoni? maya purple, thanatos on other servers? hah, highly unlikely.
Secondly, you can not compare having this "illegal trade" to having someone "drop" their cards on the ground and someone picking it up, it is totally different. Having to negotiate deals whether you're bullcrapping the heck out of the guy is different than someone losing items by dropping it on the ground don't you think? i.e Here's the difference between the two - deals are not free, dropping is, that's what makes it illegal. Just like that one person's drug deal analogy, why is dealing drugs illegal? duh because you have to pay for it. Economically, It's illegal because the government isn't making money from taxing it. If drugs were free it wouldn't be illegal because the government would have no incentive to tax those damn drugs and earn revenue. Therefore how can they be the same?
Lastly, as mentioned earlier, Vanidel may make himself be perceived as if he's doing the right and prestigious thing. How does he get to decide whether earning these cards is the correct prize for capturing such faultiness? Did he say he was going to report it to the GM after this happened? How can you believe such words? He says how everything the GM does is just word of mouth. Technically, if Vanidel was to say he was going to report it, why hasn't he in the beginning? What he says is also word of mouth from his own mouth, you can't honestly believe that he would do the right thing and report it. The fact that he mentioned that he was going to put the cards in his weapon proves that he's corrupt AND also believes that he now has the edge over the admin and thinks he can do whatever he wants because he thinks he can control whether this server will die or not due to his screenshots.
Let me give you a quick train of thought. If this unfortunate event hadn't been reported and he wouldn't have gotten caught, do you honestly think that he will report this to the GM? highly unlikely knowing that he would risk the loss of his mvp cards. Even if the cards were useless and he would just give it up, why would he even try blacklisting the server? because to me I'm sure it's not even worth the time and effort to do so. It just proves to me that he also wanted to be in this illegal scheme of his. He can reply back to this message saying how I don't know him so I can't say anything, but no one knows who he is as well and so we can definitely say the same, how can we trust his words as well?
All in all, from my perspective, it looks as if Vanidel tries to take advantage of every opportunity he gets, believing he can manipulate servers however he wants when hes making illegal trades with non-administrative characters. Also, when he gets caught, His actions speak as if he can threaten a server and get what he wants by posting these silly screenshots that also exploits himself as a faulty player.
All i can say is the two dealers are both in the wrong but seriously? Wow, QQ more Vanidel, QQ more.
