I was also on Pharyngula back then and had an entirely different experience. Did you find yourself among the dogpiled?

PZ mostly does spider posts these days.

    No I wasn't but I witnessed it. I saw people banned for arbitrary and unfair reasons. I saw Myers declare that anyone who didn't believe exactly what he did was a troll. I saw the vile accusations and slurs and supporters shit on people who cast doubt on these accusations and slurs. Difference of opinion was not a thing to be countenanced. Atheist groups got fed up with it and some even released statements to that effect. So his marginalization and atheism+ was self inflicted and well deserved.
