Need I remind everyone the proper thing to do with rumors?
I don't know what's going on. I only know rumors of who did what, or why this is all happening. And the bans.
Until someone can prove anything, SHUT UP. Rumors will not help. Throwing temper tantrums over this can't help anyone. Neither will spreading rumors. And if the admins really are as vindictive and petty as some think, then they'll lose everything they have. Maybe not today or tomorrow, or even next week... but the wicked cannot prosper. They poison their own hearts with every evil act.
Even so, forgiveness and reconciliation are possible until death. After that, it's anyone's guess what happens. I'm sure they chose the guy due to his credentials, and for their sake I hope he's not lying. Until you can prove to them that he's scum, there's no point in making accusations.
Don't spread rumors, don't panic, and don't abuse the admins just 'cause you think you know what's going on. Running a website is no easy task. For all their faults, FA runs, and it's done a lot for the fandom. Don't forget that.
I have accounts on Deviant Art and SoFurry if anything happens to me, though I doubt it will. I'm not gonna raise a fuss over something I know nothing about. But you can watch me on one of those sites if you're leaving FA. I'll probably leave FA when they ban me; I've no reason to pull up roots here. Not yet.
Again, don't make more drama. If what everyone thinks is happening is happening, then we'll deal with it. Not before. It's not like they gave him admin powers, right?
I'll see you all in the morning. Rest well, and kill any rumor you see.

Far as I'm concerned, I've no horse in this race. If the guy's guilty, then I hope he's either found out or feels convicted enough to confess and face the consequences. If he's not, then people are doing him a disservice by spreading rumors and lies when they don't know the guy personally.
