Alta are fags.
They bought the forum and promised there would be no changes. Everyone logged in one day to find out that all the mods and a huge number of members had been banned. Loads of threads had been removed. Slowly, more and more members where banned.
In short - Alta were going after investment, decided the OG was a bit too spicy so deleted it.
TMMAC offered us temporary asylum until Brother @Onikage shepherded us to this hilltop retreat, where we will be safe from invasion and floodwaters alike.
