To speculate what went down, without knowing all the details, is all well and good, but I have read a lot of stuff in this thread that was way off the mark.
No, I am not going to fill you in on what is what. I am just saying that if you take all of these assumptions as truths, it would be foolish.
Maynard, oh Maynard... I don't even know where to begin... so I won't.
I'd like to see BOTH OAAWITE/Galt back on oa.com, and I hope both choose to, and are granted permission to do so.
I don't want them back for the support of oa.com, I just don't agree with the reasons that they are gone.
I wholeheartedly support everyone's decision here that decided to leave for their own reasons. I have not, and never will hold that against them.
Also, for the dual site members, if you choose to permanently leave one site for another, whether it be CDIH for OA.com or OA.com for CDIH -- I am sure, especially at this point, that it would be the latter -- nobody should make you feel guilty for your choices, I know that I won't. If you need to take a breather from one and post on another, that is a valid option as well.
The bottom line is this, as much as I hate to admit it, it wasn't Froy's fault what went down yesterday... he didn't push the arm that made the deletions. At the same time it wasn't an actual moderator either. It was an egotistical asswipe that goes by the name of Anthony. It was him and him only for his reasons alone that deleted both OAAWITE's account and Gonzostyle's account.
So with that in mind, Froy, and the actual caretakers (moderators) of oa.com, should not be viewed in a bad light for what happened, We have many more reasons to be viewed negatively, from it's members and past members, this should not be one of them.
