A lot of bad things happen in this world, and the reality is as time passes the rest of the world moves on, and they tend to not really have as much sympathy for those who cannot let things go.
This is not about defending the owners of Full Tilt. They were morons. They should have had more consequences. However, as time passes - more and more people will care less and less, that is just the way these things work.
Imagine 15-20 years from now - do you think it will still be healthy to be upset about this and consider berating this guy at the tables if he is still playing surrounded by those who were not even born when Black Friday happened? That's just a function of time passing.

Shrug. There was a video someone posted last year where he insulted the guy. Find it and watch it and enjoy it. Realistically, time moves on and the number of people who feel the fire you do diminishes, and the number of people who just think it was an semi interesting piece of poker history (if they know about it at all) increases.
