All that was needed was some acknowledgment of a (pretty minor, really) screw up from twickster or any of the admins, instead of stonewalling, silence, and the usual bullshit from the masturbatory mode defenders.** It’s too late now, especially since the nonny-and-quasi show has gotten into full swing. But there was never any plan fix this, and the ending was a foregone conclusion from the time the other thread was opened.
