It's safe to say that Eric and Ice along with the team at GFY were caught in a situation and did the right thing. As Ice was on the front lines Eric I am sure was working behind the scene's to look and correct the situation unaware of how the webmaster community would feel so strongly about it. The team I am sure knew of tubes and the overall feeling from webmasters but that GFY's rule book had nothing written down regarding doing business with them. Now a prescience has been set with consequences that will be remembered and copied by other boards in how they deal with tubes and future problem companies - that webmasters ARE the one's who guide decision making.
Thanks GFY for making a landmark decision instead of letting it run it's course and waiting a few weeks until it blows over as we all know it would eventually. I know it wasn't an easy one, but it was the right one. Bringing back those that were banned was also a wise move.
