There are always two sides to every story. I have just read this thread and seen Hoe's side, now I'm interested to see what an Admin has to say on the subject. Then and only then will I form a final opinion. From Hoe's viewpoint and thus the story so far, it doesn't seem like he has done anything wrong. The post about "stop posting state numbers" was the 3rd post in the thread saying that, and he followed it by 3 smiley faces, to me an indicator he was joking around in the first place. Then his comment he made about BB was hardly bashing (a mere poke) but the mod had the right to edit it since that is their job. To me I don't see this small little incident being the removal of the Dev Team, I would bet there is a bigger picture or more incidents we are unaware of. And that is why before people pick sides it's good to hear both sides of the story.
