Man Ezra, I feel for you, but I have the no bashing rule on the site.
I have saved your original post on my hard drive and I would like to figure out a way to be able to let them tell their side and restore your post as well. I am going to be out of the office for most of the rest of the day and it may take a while for them to make a response (if they do at all).
It is also not that I don't believe you. Anyone spending some time on this site will know the nature of your character well, that is to be blunt, not afraid to voice your opinion at all and not a BS'er at all. I just want to be fair and stick to the rules of the board.
In any case, your comments are not totally gone, just taking a break for now until time can sort things out a bit. I guess I would also welcome opinions from others on what to do here.
