What happened to Voted 5?
On September 19th, 2006, the Voted 5 group suffered the same purge that the original SA Goons group did. LL claims that 60 people were banned “in connection with the recent grid attacks,” but many of them had not even logged in for months. As far as anyone can tell, LL simply banned everyone that didn’t have the lowest role in the group. Many enemies of W-Hat were banned, but most of them did not deserve it. Only innocent people were hurt by this action. The true griefers were back in the game within minutes, while some of the most talented people in SL lost years of work with no warning and no explanation. Those people, their fans, and their friends are the only ones who will suffer. Though W-Hat was not affected, people generally name W-Hat instead of Voted 5 when referring to the event.
