Concerning SirCmpwn, I think he felt like he had the right to do what he did because not only was we he staff, but also the top donator (see bottom right at the Omnimaga home page). Which is pretty sad...
On the contrary: he was staff, people put their trust in him, and he didn't care about that.
And money doesn't do everything. If we donate, it is for the site to remain as it is, not to take it down.
