I'm sticking around cos there's nowhere else to go when I have a question or even want to just enthuse about something.
I can understand the feelings of some. But, if I had been insulted or offended enough to say so long, I reckon I'd keep on looking in, just out of curiosity, and, if they do, they should gradually see the smoke clear and things get back to normal. That's the time for our valued contributers to come back in, no questions asked ( unless they're about accordions )
