As a signer of the petition, I suppose I'd better chip in with my two cents.
For my part, I suppose I am satisfied. I had initially signed hoping for some further clarification/explanation, which various mods have kindly given - I had heard davem's side of the story, and in hearing the mods' was hoping for an account that would mesh nicely with it - unfortunately, they seem to contradict each other in places, so that I do not know for sure which is the truth as far as it goes. And being that I absolutely do not have the time right now in life to read the entirety of the LotB thread, I am probably not the best person to judge.
I never wanted to accuse any of the mods of some kind of conspiracy theory or accuse them of acting in bad faith, nor do I now think they were. I'm sorry that it had to come to this and wish it hadn't.
On a related note, the other reason I was in favor of the petition was to at least have it out in the open - I think having people rant over on Formen's blog was doing nothing to help and only fostering bad will. However, I don't really think there is much more that needs to be said. The mods clearly made their decision based on what they thought was right and at this point I think we're beating the dead horse, per se. I'm not sure I ever expected the petition to accomplish more than it has: getting the issue out in the open and getting the mods' pov on the issue.
