Apparently, Andrew Lee just did the #Freenode Great Purge. Now everyone's nick and channel records are gone at the new server.

RIP my 8-year #Freenode account.
I had to enable "showdead" on Hacker News to read the banned comments from Andrew Lee (yes, he is active on HN) and see if he has anything to say about #Freenode ... His troll level here is over 9000!

I can't imagine the state of mind of a person in that position. Seems deeply troubled. (Especially writing messages when you can be pretty sure nobody will see them.)
