Did you really just use vulgarity to denigrate a site that used vulgarity?

And where else were the banned iceholes supposed to go? Quit the hobby? Heck, since they were bammed from CU, they didn't even have a place to go to announce they were quitting the hobby!

Seriously, though. The place was started by Matt (lawnmowerman) as a place for friends to hang out without many of the restrictions of other boards. Yes, there were many bammed CU members there (but WAY more members that had full posting privileges there and elsewhere). Yes, there were inappropriate things said and pictures posted in one subforum. But don't paint the place like that's all it was - that's not close to truthful, and I think the site's detractors know that. I know people tend to focus on the controversial things but proper recognition should be given for the many things that had nothing to do with the 'bad' stuff.
