But, hey, I'm in my current apartment and as much as I get annoyed by the landlord sometimes, it's a much bigger hassle and expense to pack everything up, rent a moving truck, look for a new apartment, debate the variety of apartments available, decide none of them are good enough, pick the least-bad one, realize that most of my friends have scattered to the winds, and end up significantly less happy.
Uh. Apparently I felt stronger about this than I thought I did.
I'm not sure I see the betrayal here; there's clearly some really horriffic business practices going on, what with the non-informing of people as to the relevant rules, but really, this was never a For Fandom, By Fandom space, as the use of the word "betrayal" suggests. The only way I can see a betrayal is in the "they took our money, the bastards, and now they're kicking us off!" line of reasoning. And honestly, since I haven't seen the offending artwork, I'm not 100% comfortable saying they were out of line on the subject matter, though as stated before their communication skills leave a lot to be desired.
