It smells like it's back up again, but here's a big difference: when someone makes a bashing statement, then tries to claim it was a misunderstanding by the person who read it -- someone else steps in with quotes and facts, and pounds said basher into the ground.

THAT is a huge change of behavior.

As far as the brief outage, perhaps there were more files to be deleted. Most of the basher identities are now silent. Hmmmmm.......
