I'm all for letting people have their little delusions of grandeur, but I think the reality is that the TBT was getting a bit too risque for a general audience forum such at this one. It was just a matter of time before the the "suits" at Polk Inc. pulled the plug on the TBT. I think that the stylized whinings of Sona and Ron just helped speed up the inevitable. Indeed, some members have posted speculations on how long Polk was going to allow the TBT to go on, and surprise that it continued for as long as it did. Furthermore, some members seemed to relish the thought of "pushing the envelope" with their picture postings, thinking that the TBT was going to soon come crashing down, in flames, anyway.
Some things are only meant to be enjoyed for a season. Although, some insight can be gained from the fact that the TBT was not deleted altogether, but rather closed and removed from the mainstream forum. It is still available in vivid color for those who know where to look. Even more than that, the Internet is bursting at the seams with pictures of anything one would want to see. Therefore, I have trouble believing that forum members feel a great sense of "loss" due to the closing of the TBT.
I know that this small "victory" over the clique/cult won't come anywhere near to healing your low self esteem due to
a) All the times no one picked you to play on their team...even though you had a new ball;
b) All the cute/pretty/hot girls who laughed at you when you asked for a date; and
c) All the times you had sand kicked in your face at the beach.
However, I hope that the illusion that you "stuck it to the team" gives you some measure of satisfaction as you go back to commiserate on the Yahoo "Psychopaths" forum.

Do you have anything to add? ~DK
Uh...no. I think you pretty much covered everything. Thanks for asking.
