He did not, any more than Ruth claimed it was my doing. But you've just contradicted yourself: Above, you say that Barry's accusation that I drive people off forums was "exactly what happened" in Ruth's case. You can't keep track of your own arguments, Sal. Citing a person's > posts as a reason doesn't constitute making them responsible > IMO.

The only reason Michael spoke up at all, via his email to Alex, was to confirm what I had said against Barry's accusations that I was making it up. Unlike Ruth, he didn't make a "farewell" post blaming anybody as the reason he left, or even send an email to the moderators. He just quietly unsubscribed. If Barry hadn't gone into full meltdown mode, we wouldn't have heard anything more from Michael.
