I don't really want to get involved in this, but John does have a good point. One of the reasons the UT is doing so well is because MVPs are here and MS is honoring this site as a site that produces MVPs. Now that the UT is established, MVPs aren't needed anymore so they get kicked off. Not exactly a nice move...
Honestly: I don't care all too much, but I wouldn't argue John's point either.
