from what i understand thru the grapevine.... there was a posse of conservatives ( all friends of mine ) who took it on themselves to run out several people that they didn't like... they continuosly complained to the modes
when some of their liberal targets got wind of this.... they formed a liberal counterterrorist group ( another posse ) and they started emailing the mods...
the end result was exasperation on Taunton's part and they all got the axe
except for one or two !!!! or 3 or 4 !!!!
so.... those that complained know who they are ( and i don't kknow all who were involved ).. and some are still here
it was really pretty childish...
i would like to state that i have never emailed the mods about anything that i can remember.. and certainly not to complain about someone's post
but this was a campaign to run off other posters... and it was responded to by the other side and it backfired
