In reality, that is what it is. If we remove some members that have left the forum, at least those we know of and accounts that were banned like that of Ratimov,
I don’t think the user formerly known as Ratimov was banned, but I guess he voluntarily left the forum.
Of course, him and o_e_l_e_o, who for sure voluntarily left the forum, were two heavy weights in the MS space.
Still interested what happened to MS.
Did any of the current MS experienced change in MS allowance? This is another point.

You may have had missed the drama around Ratimov, and I don't have the exact link, but he changed his name (and supposedly sold his account) and so I am pretty sure he ended up getting banned or something.  He also went on a post and/or thread deleting rampage.  It was not a very pretty history.. and maybe that is why I don't have such links in the top of my head or desires to wade through such drama..

I totally missed the part of account selling.
I do remember he changed his name (so it might be nice thing to call him with his new name Symmetrick), and his deletion of messages.
On BPIP.org on the other hand, there are no sign of him being banned
