Hmm, a quick precis1: Clay posted a picture
2: HappyToast liked the picture, and suggested Clay resize it to 400px wide as it was 4 pixels too wide for the FP. I highly doubt this was meant as a serious dig. HT also said something about Clay being obstinate, in reference to Clay refusing to resize for the FP in the past. I highly doubt this was meant as a serious dig.
3: Clay took offense and after a fun-filled few minutes accused HT of trolling him.
4: A mod came along and edited one of Clay's posts, and then edited it back again.
5: Clay emailed Rob demanding his account be wiped and saying that mods editing random posters' posts is beyond the pale.
6: Clay posted his email to Rob, and Rob's reply, in a thread just below. Then Clay's profile was deleted, as was the thread with Rob's reply.
7: Fun and games were had by all.
8: If you talk about the murkier side of B3ta you'll quickly find that the b3ta Stazi will be onto you, watching every single Like and Ignore you click. Then they'll edit your posts. And then when you complain it'll be like you never even existed. Be scared. Be very scared.

He apologised for the modand tried to explain that HT was giving a slightly cack-handed compliment, and asked him to stay.

Posting personal messages in a thread is completely unacceptable Clay made a mountain out of a molehill

Well, unless I did tooTo be honest, he had a point about the mod going in and editing his post - THFH claims one of his posts was also edited. Even so, the whole thing seemed to blow up out of nothing; it was already ongoing before then.
Ah well, internets makes drama, I suppose.
