Haha, ok a little more detail. But I swear, if I got banned for bringing this up, there won't be a place in cyberspace safe enough for you.
People were protesting over a wide range of moderating issues. Back then, we had like over a dozen moderators. And those moderators were constantly being questioned, pushed, shoved, and abused. The forum was slowly becoming a damn democracy.
The Imperious Leader (aka Percy), with his almighty powers, killed (banned) half the moderators and mortalized the rest. So, for a while in heaven and earth Percy was the only one with moderating powers. Everyone who even spoke up with a hint of protest was quickly disappeared... probably sent to some cyber re-education camp somewhere.
When things calmed down a little, 3 previous moderators were gradually reinstated (after they spent some time in the re-education camp of course).
Probably what caused Ned to lose the rest of his hair...
