I think their decision was equitable and fair.

I don't. Our argument was making the thread a toothache to read for everyone else, and though I'd already decided to leave t be, I have to own the consequences of my actions. I amongst others was flinging insults and making posts that at times did nothing to advance the conversation. I certainly wasn't alone in that, but "she did it too" is no excuse.
It's one thread on one forum in the backwaters of the dubyas.
As for what AF is "about", meh. It's a privately owned site and anyone posting is subject to rules (though they are sometimes vague to the point of uselessness). It's "about" whatever the ownership wishes to provide, and nothing more.
