Another board I'm active (was?) on just had a blow up of the first order with the owner/moderator.

Some poor customer service recently, followed by a user banning / post deletion for no reason many of the senior posters there could see other than somebody stepped on some politically correct toes of a industry celebrity.

By last night there was an on-going peeing on cheerios match with multiple users and IP addresses being banned and post after post being removed.

As I pointed out to them today in no uncertain and unappreciated terms, they operate by consent of the users -- they own the site, but the top 1% of posters have contributed 40% of the content, and by views of those posts have driven something on the order of 140 million ads served up in front of people. Yeah, it could be my way or the highway, but if we take the highway it'll hit them square in the wallet and really not personally affect the posters much at all. (Hmmm, wonder what Kim would do with a 140 million views of ads...)
