Concur with CU4 completely.
The entire club happened because of BT. He picked up the pieces of PIC and made it something better, more intimate, less chaotic. I lament that some of the more interesting posters have gone, and I have whined myself here lately. But there has never been a moment I have questioned BT's skills, commitment or leadership.
I do not know for sure what the emailer(s) said, but I would venture a guess that either they complained about too much banning or not enough control. Either way, they are wrong. I think BT has generally tried to allow us to govern ourselves - which, whatever the outcome, is the way I think any site should be run. BT has stepped in when behavior got extreme, and I have always trusted his judgement in the matter. As time has gone on different approaches have been tried - and that is a normal part of a growing process. Nobody here is any better qualified to be a moderator than BT. And of course, his name is hanging on the sign outside next to the word "Proprietor."
There isn't even a question. I don't believe a vote is necessary or even appropriate.
