A clean slate and a fresh start. This lead to a series of events which has culminated into recent events. There's no real increase in members here because we're still in the dark. Most of the seemingly new members are still taking advantage of the window of opportunity by introducing themselves as "new to Bnet". The recent events has the telltales of experienced craftsmanship. The sudden decrease in moderation has surely contributed to this. I'm sure we lost many members who would have brought these users to the Ninjas attention by reporting, as all members should. It would not be for Ninja justice but rather for the users to understand that they get muted as soon as they show their faces.
