Yeah understandable. But that is because some members drew attention. The "staff" wouldn't have cared if every member would have acted normal outside the social group.
Actually when I think of the members that constantly bragged how many infractions they have your statement here is perfectly coherent.

But the fact remains that there was not enough discussion amongst the staff to do act until some members recently were asking for the banhammer to be set in motion.

The way I see it, some of the EB Taverners will stay and contribute to the Org, which is great. A few may decide that if they can't have their private place to post pictures of kittens being burned to death, they need to move on. That's fine too. The internet is big, and nobody needs to feel locked down.
I am sorry, but that is slander. I have not seen a picture of kittens being burned in the tavern or anything like it. Such behavior is not what the EB tavern is about, nor are such people welcome there.
Like AVSM pointed out, profanity was the only rule we broke. And you know what? I can live with that and I still think it's okay within a social group if we play nice.

Fixiwee, I'd be curious to hear what you think the Org's management should have done.
No. That's not my job.
The deletion of the tavern was done.
I don't agree, though I understand the motivation to do so.
Despite it, I think this was not done in a subtle manner, but rather a show of power.
This is why I post here
I know I wont change anything.

But I can at least make you rethink what your position and that's all I ask for.
And I think to a certain agree I succeeded with that.
