I can't find his name in the members list! Where did he go? I need to ask him when the new MBP comes out. He'll know. 
Which specific rule?
doesn't matter. he broke the rules and is gone.
i doubt the mods want this discussion to continue, i'd move along.
They must be jealous.
Why can't it be talked about? I understand it may be a sensitive subject (although I am not familiar with what happened). But as long as no one else breaks any rules while discussing it, I don't think the mods should get into the business of censorship or limiting what can be discussed if the rules aren't being broken. Especially when the topic is what happens when you do break the rules.
