I agree. Cowardly. Not a smart move on their part. The official message board of the team?
I'll say this though, board was a shell of itself for a few years. Lost its edge. Yeah, a few posters may have been a bit over the top, but it was good conversation. Once they went on a ban-a-rama, lost good posters and others were afraid of being pointed.
Anyways, been here for years. Good place!
