I do remember being quite angry at Dr. Bob in the midst of his draconian enforcement of the rules governing civility. My anger emerged as I believed that this paradigm of moderation was responsible for a sharp decline in posting activity. I didn't collect statistics, though, so I don't know for certain that there was such a decline.
