But he gets his small boards after all. As posters come to appreciate the situation for what it is: Seeing the wheels go round and round with not much change to the punitive punishments (or only a temporary change till the pressure is off then things can go right back to what they were). People are posting less. The archives are down. Less diversity of posting names. Sure he has got a little story to himself about how its correlated with him being around less or about how its correlated with his dissociation from google but if he really wanted to know he could manipulate those variables... He didn't need to gate entry from the community as a whole, he just needed to let the community see how the wheels were turning and the gating into the community as a whole, well, took care of that problem for him. Threads like this help to be sure.
