I'd been reading con reports about it and stumbled upon this lovely scene
of LiveJournal drama -- whether or not it's part of the problem that led
to this step, I couldn't say, but it does seem to highlight a clash in

It's interesting reading if only because it's something that has caused
problems at other cons, too.
