Seriously, as much as CUSA deserves any bashing they get, let's not try to rewrite history. There's been a lot of censoring, changing rules and other shady stuff on a.org, aw.net, Morphzone or amigans.net in the last decade. For every stupid thing Barry and his minions are doing, I can list five things Mike Bouma did.
The only difference between them and us is that we (well, some of us) woke up earlier. That's not much of an achievement, IMHO.
