They were removed because of problems with sockpuppets of banned users being given rights. And then at least some of those socks with rights being used to damage the wikia

The question I have now is: if I give out bureaucrat rights, will that all start again?

I'm not sure if it's time to risk that yet I don't think any of the socking will start again. Both Tanner and Ben have left the Wiki. As so, we won't have any issues with bureaucrat rights.

Ben hasn't left the wiki. He's coming back when his IP ban ends in September.
