Hello,
Now first of all I'm in no means an authority to speak on behalf of anyone except myself of course. I haven't been to the forums for quite a while and my old account became rather inactive. Now, a couple of days ago I decided to take a look again to see what the grand-grand-grand children of my favorite threads have been up to... well I don't need to say more.
The thread title says it already, and believe me I have searched for an answer but couldn't find one.
What made Jonah dish out such a severe collective punishment? I mean I know the reason, but how can you justify wiping an entire forum just like that to weed out the undesirables? I get that he's the owner and all, but I'd really like to get a more in-depth answer. All those insanely helpful threads, those countless bastions of knowledge - they'll soon be gone forever. And for what? To punish a select few? I just don't get it.
Please note that I am not trying to attack anyone or paint a bad picture of Jonah and/or the forums. I'm honestly just baffled and a bit sad. I hope that my desire for discussion will be honored and that others (and especially the owner of CBR) will chime in and contribute - of course there's probably not gonna be that much of a talk going on in this thread, but please don't just dismiss it out of hand and close the thread. At least allow me to respond.
