However, saying that the attitude exhibited by people like Yronwode is
largely responsible for the disappearance of services like Fletcher Mattox's
is *not* BS, and I think Fletcher's message made it reasonable clear that
complaints about the gateway were a large part of what made it not fun any
more.

Regardless of what kind of spin you want to put on this, Cat Yronwode will
be remembered as the person who provided the last straw that resulted in the
closing of a gateway that was very popular and widely used.  And as far as
I'm concerned, the reputation she'll get from that is well deserved.
