The only 'legal problems' were threats that either Larry or Chris made periodically regarding 'defamation of character' or whatnot. The only factor that coincided with this was that Ryan (and most of the users) were tired of the regular harrassment. yeah, I know, incorrect verb tense in the third line - I'm too lazy to fix it right now. ps - do you know why, exactly, it's down?

I though it was pretty funny. One girl I was sitting with at lunch was talking about how she had to sit behind him on the bus on a long debate trip.
