This is just pure speculation, but Meow thinks that maybe that they where not as quite deeply invested as some of us are here. As it seemed easier for them to bail unlike some of us. Or it could just be they where a lot smarter than us a knew not to keep beating a dead horse. Either way Meow has no ill will towards them. It would have been nice for them to say goodbye at least. But in Tabes case, Meow thought he was going to help us with a lawsuit. But its OK, its not like he owed us anything anyway. But Meow did PM him more than a few times in regard with no reply to this date. Wish him the best anyway.
