    Hello darkness, my old friend
    He's lying. It had nothing to do with Obama or politics in one direction or the other. One of the moderators there got tired of all the sniping back and forth in political threads in general (not specific ones), decided unilaterally that it wasn't possible to moderate effectively and moved all the political threads out of the Portland Off-Topic forum and to the site's political forum, and banned future political threads in the Off-Topic forum.

    That created anger, obviously, and a higher-ranking moderator came in and shut down threads meant to argue the move and forbid futher threads about the topic for the day. Things melted down from there, with both sides getting angrier and angrier.

    BTOWN_HUSTLA likes to overstate his own importance and assumes if he repeats his version enough, eventually people will stop bothering to correct it. ;)

    Hey, how come we're not deleting any and all references to BBF and banning anyone that even attempts to mention it in code let alone openly? Just curious. ;)

    That's the truth, no matter the spin we see these days to cover up H**'s meltdown. I like how people who weren't even involved try to say you're lying, ADP. Bad form, Minstrel, and the original meltdown was 100% due to criticizing Obama by posting many negative threads about him in the OT forum.

    Yup. Most of us did. And many of us had moved en masse in 2002 to BBF from a previous forum (FanHome). ;)

    We're a roving community.
