Nope. That was pretty frustrating. There were theories of course. The one that made the most sense to me, and the one that had the best circumstantial evidence for it, in my opinion, was that it was the work of a movie studio or something closely related. There were plenty of hints, but nothing solid. I'm sure that was no accident. I saw what I referred to as "corporate control" written all over the saga. We were certain we were dealing with people who had signed non-disclosure agreements, no matter what sort of entity was behind it. Some thought it was a student prank or something, but those don't usually have real money behind them, and eventually someone blabs or brags. The lid was on tight, and probably still is.
When UFO Casebook Forum dissolved into the ether, last year I think it was, a ton of good work was lost. There were dozens of threads, some with hundreds of pages, chock full of impressive research done by interested amateurs. I functioned mainly as an analyst, though I did not shy away from the down and dirty and sometimes bare-knuckled rough and tumble. Many others brought high skills in CGI and related fields, and my best friend in that mess was a guy who could blow your mind when he got to digging online. The guy was scary. Turned out he's a librarian. Librarians are awesome. Another fellow was so good and meticulous at analysis of evidence and data that he made my work look like child's play. He was also a hell of a forum moderator, making surgical edits on the fly in threads what were getting wildly out of hand. He seemed to really enjoy it. He remodeled quite a number of my posts, and I always admired his work.
The old Open Minds Forum is where most of that stuff got started, but it has been gone for upwards of ten years, if memory serves. There was a lot of good work done there, pretty much in spite of the efforts of the proprietor. He turned out to be a real nutter. There is a long thread at ATS with what I suspect is the last significant cache of good work left online. It's a little weird when you think the whole thing started in the Spring of '07. Now there is little left of any real investigation to be found online.
