Whoa........I think it is totally inappropriate to bring up an issue that I had on another board 2 years ago, especially since you don't know the situation in the slightest. The fact of the matter is, I was a moderator and the forum administrator was/is control-happy. I didn't agree with him on some things(one was my then-more-conservative view of music) and he didn't like it. He basically said that we(other members were also involved) had to fall in line or leave. We chose the latter and wanted to do so quietly until he started making up things and slandering us on the board. We merely responded by blogging since a lot of members read them. It was a rather painful time for a lot of people and I think it's very rude to bring it up. Many other members were involved that have contrasting views to mine on some things. It had nothing to do with any of us "sowing division."

Kevin's right... I was there on that other board when it all happened. I got kicked off that site later, too. None of us did anything wrong, the administrator just couldn't handle talking to people who disagreed with him. He kicked us all off and left only the members that said "Amen" to everything he posted.
