In other words, he's been trying to gain traction on the issue for months now with no luck.

I really can't comment on the story as I have no way of confirming anything, but if you take the basic facts of what Dan has said at face value - and if you don't, why would you even bother posting - he is not doing this just for his self-interest. He lists quite a few other people who are blacklisted, including a WFA winner. Again, I have no way of knowing if this is accurate, but it's not just about Dan - as he tells it anyway.

(Dan, I'm not trying to cast aspersions on your character - just that as many people have said, there can be two sides to any story and without knowing both, it would be jumping to conclusions to side with anyone. And that's how Milo got in trouble.)
I think you missed my overall point, who cares? Let them have their little fiefdom. There are a lot of other opportunities out there.

I can see why you do not understand why I bothered to post because it is obvious you missed the essence of my message. I am not analyzing that issue because you are correct I do not have all the facts. So whether the blacklist exists or doesn't, whether a WFA winner is on it or not, whether he volunteered as a MC, a Ref, or anything else is pointless to me.

My point is bigger than that. The inability of some to brush things off and move forward in a positive constructive way is disturbing to me. People need to be able to move forward whether they got what they wanted or not (myself included).
