You can take all the offense you want, but several of us didn't like the bashing of this site and stood up! then got the boot. So maybe you are newer to the site and don't know the "players" or why it was done and the very mean spirited comments that were made, but it wasn't all rainbows and unicorns on that site. Maybe things have changed, and if they did, then why keep it "private" and find the need to approve people to join it??
