A short description of the situation (without every single occurrence that lead to the current situation) would be very much appreciated.
All this hasn't been addressed. I don't know what will come of it, but if all is just brushed under the rug, my trust and motivation to post on the forum will definitely take a hit. The vibe of the forum will take a hit as well, that is for sure.
I did give a brief and general overview of the situation. The fact that my answer doesn't suit you is your choice. I don't know of hardly any forums where the admin is demanded to make such explanations, but I did so anyway. See my previous posts in this thread.
Just as expected this is just turning into rumor, hearsay, and wrong speech. There are lots of things general members don't know about behind scenes discussions. I gave a general and brief overview of the issue and made the change. As Buddhists of all people you should understand impermanence. There were staff changes and there will be staff changes in the future too; including me. No one was banned.
Some of the less skillful posts here are trying to bait me into saying negative things about former moderators and I am not going to do it. I remember the positive, good things and the good people that they are and wish them well. No one was banned.
