Ok, I'm going to step in here for a moment and ask everyone (staff included) to step back and stop commenting on this issue. I feel terrible that something like this has happened, and it deserves a proper explanation where people are aware of both sides of the situation. Non-staff members do not have access to all of the information on this issue, and staff commenting on the issue do, so their words cannot always be interpreted correctly.
Until there is an official staff announcement, staff are only speaking for themselves in this thread. There is much that has been said which I disagree with, and I believe the rest of the staff would disagree with it too.
Please remember that this is the holidays; I have been offline and will continue to be until tomorrow. I'll try to get some kind of explanation of the situation up then, along with what we've done to rectify it, and what we have in plan to make sure it doesn't happen again.
