You are having an overreaction. (But I would also say the ops are being overzealous and inefficient with their goal of having less people suck at IRC, which seems like a fine goal.)

A person who does not want to suck at IRC should not want to participate in this behavior: http://pastebin.com/yBw1iX1C

(Times are Pacific, my client does not always log every channel event.)

Here's the follow-up log up until this moment, which includes various chatter and discussion on this "drama": http://pastebin.com/8Rz9PFv4

Edit: to the downvoter, I'll happily delete both these comments if you feel that context logs shouldn't be linked to so that anyone else on this site has a clue what this discussion is about.

Your log doesn't show join or leave events. It's somewhat relevant that the starting point for the argument is when Anubhav_C and Burninate_ get kicked off the channel without comment by Peacebringer (and then both rejoin) just before the "Why the kicking?" line.
