So what was the point of closing their accounts? Was it to teach a lesson to those of us that stayed?

Accounts are closed by the user, I think, versus bans which are done by admins.

I was actually asking if they voluntarily closed out their own accounts to prove how much the quality of the forums would decline in their absence.

Possibly. Or perhaps they are more comfortable posting in a forum with a mindset that's more homogenous in nature.
