The dev's mistake was bringing on IE in the first place.  The guy is a liar, a swindler, and a fraud.  The only reputation that was ruined was his and those of his fanboy shills.

The dev knew what IE was, and brought him in anyway (it was public knowlege - if he didnt know, he was negligent or didnt care)

IE, IE's people and the general community were all the victims of the Developer.  Sure, you can be happy that a known scammer got his due (IE), but you can then look to the developer and his actions since then and judge him accordingly.  The way it looks from the outside is that he is either incompetent or malicious or both.

Like I said, bringing him on was a mistake.  They were momentarily conned by a con-artist.  In a year it won't matter.

They handled that removal in an incompetent manner.  They have handled questions and concerns with heavy handed censorship.  They have been uneven and contradictory with their communication.

They have hidden behind the concept of liberty - a concept that has been used throughout history to both inflame passions for good and to take advantage of those whose passions are inflamed by the word.

How would you have handled the removal?

The one doing the most heavy-handed censorship was IE--who of course, later cried when his useless spam was deleted.  

I think the communication could be a little better, but I don't understand why some people need so much hand-holding.  People need to learn to think and discern for themselves.  Obvious bullshitters and blowhards are obvious.
