Well I can't by IRC... and I really don't know who to ask. By the way this is no private matter, it is a matter of BleuLlama abusing his power.
These are privately owned forums which are running on a privately owned server which BleuLlama is maintaining for us. Keep in mind that as a site admin and developer, BleuLlama has the choice of doing whatever he feels like doing. He has op powers because he has gained the trust and/or respect of others and shown that he is capable of being a responsible person. If you have an issue with his actions and attitudes, take it up with him directly (e.g. PMs, etc.) but not here on the forums.
As for the banning, I read the IRC logs and, honestly speaking, the way you responded was a bit rude (we do things on our own free time and are not under any sort of obligations whatsoever) and probably tipped him over the edge. For the school IP banning, just from reading the IRC logs, it seems highly unlikely for so many of your classmates joined IRC at once one after another (looked more like a person continuously joining under new names). If it was indeed multiple people honestly looking for help, they were unfortunately caught in the incident. Regardless, what was said in IRC was completely inappropriate and what BleuLlama did was a logical choice (banning the entire IP). You may try to convince BleuLlama to do an un-ban, but that depends on how politely you approach him.
