The Detectives' Den

[Maudie]

My good friends, the age of forum shipping is drawing to a close. With that close comes the dawning of a new era, an era shrouded in mystery and uncertainty. Such an era requires a specific set of skills from forum members that expect to survive: those of investigation and deduction.
So many mysteries abound in the boards of this forum, and the only members who can truly thrive in this new age are the ones who are willing to solve these mysteries. Now is the time, and here is the thread to practice these skills.
In this Detectives' Den, we shall focus on solving these cases.
There is one case that precedes all others in importance. We will eventually address relevant cases such as the disappearance of Delthion, or what Skarzs is really doing with the Sword of Martin the Warrior, but before all these we need to take a look at this most important issue: the malfunctioning of the old forum.

Let's look at the facts:
Everyone knows that James has always been power hungry and ambitious. While the old forum still worked he seized position after position, stopping at nothing to get what he wanted. Then he cast his eyes on the one position it seemed he would never attain: that of webmaster. James has always wanted a forum of minions at his command and the ability to torment them with annoying forum tweaks whenever he wants. So he came up with a diabolical plan to seize control of the forum.
We don't know how, but the evidence suggests that James was responsible for the malfunctioning of the old forum. We also suspect he has disposed of the Redwall Abbey forum webmaster, in order to secure his position.

I need your insight, my friends. What conclusions have you come to in your investigations and deductions?

I feel you might be on to something here.
Can we see the evidence for James malfunctioning the old forum? I was under the impression that Rusvul did it, but James might very well have been using Rusvul as a scapegoat.

[Lady Ashenwyte]

no rusvul did it.

[Maudie]

Maybe James hired Rusvul to do it.

[Eulaliaaa!]

Mystery solved.

@James Gryphon

Defend Your Honor!

Edit: Groddil made the Brockhall Forum recently... what if he is planning the same thing? 

[Lady Ashenwyte]

lol no I did it

[James Gryphon]

but the evidence

What evidence?

[Maudie]

I don't know what you're talking about.

[Maudie]

Do you think James got rid of the old forum to advance his own interests?
Yes
- 9 (81.8%)
No
- 2 (18.2%)

It's official! James got rid of the old forum. Not only is the popular vote with this option, but James himself voted yes!

CASE CLOSED!

Any suggestions for the next case?

We have reason to believe the guests were the reason for Delthion's disappearance.

They... They've kidnapped @Delthion !
