I thought it might be because, when JohnTheHumble stepped in on a dispute, AJ responded that the deal was that the admin let this board alone. But who knows...
I thought IMDb would be around forever; it's not. Some of the movie stuff is archived somewhere, maybe... I have stopped counting on "the Internet is forever". Hell, maybe someday I will get banned, or just decide that discussions here don't really promote understanding between people of different opinions, but only cause arguments, and decide to spend my time elsewhere. Too many ad hominems, not enough serious discussion, too many trolls...
Sad, really - the Internet has such potential for promoting understanding and a 'live and let live' atmosphere in a contentious world, but it is the product of humans, and they are a contentious species.
