Nah. Favoritism. They don't really like GamerGate; pro-GG posters have been getting fucked over for shit that doesn't make sense. I imagine it really pisses them off that the Escapist forum has become one of the go-to places for discussion and news on the matter. Same thing happened with GS, but everyone already knew that GS mods were cunts.

I'll try VPNBook I suppose.
