Sysop Vandal point of view

The Sysop Vandal point of view or Cabal point of view (usually abbreviated SVpov because CPOV is used to mean Critical point of view) is the view of the sysop power structure. By definition, any group of people approves of their own systemic bias and rejects strong opposition to it. This forms a cabal which new trolls, perhaps foolishly, oppose in the assumption that the cabal can be forced to see sanity by anything short of brutal physical violence. The New Troll point of view is thus always and exactly the opposite of the SVpov, and indicates ethical attempts by trolls to defeat the SVpov by rational argument, before someone blows up the servers.

Thus troll activity acts as an important warning to the sysop vandalism advocates - when it slacks off, that indicates either that the wiki has become irrelevant, or, that opposition will continue by other means, e.g. lawsuits.
