It is Alan's board, so when you boil it all down, since he's paying the piper, he gets to call the tune. I've had several e-mails with Alan, and in every case, he's been cordial and very supportive of the E31 community. And let's face it, this is a pretty damned fine forum.
I don't think your comment regarding Alan's motives of self-preservation are accurate, since the E31 board is such a tiny percentage of the overall bandwidth roadfly.com generates. Given the success of www.bimmer.org, I doubt they're seriously concerned with Philippe Brule's site as competition.
I would, however, encourage the board moderators to clearly state the "rules of the house" to prevent this type of event from happening in the future.
