Dutch Steampunk going Black

EDIT 2* So I talked with some of the others parties involved. I still don't know what to make of it, but one thing I do know. Blocking or ignoring communications is far more destructive than any rumor. The accused party was not informed of any of the accusations leveled against them and came to me for an explanation of way I posted this article. I explained my decision to write this, and we agreed to keep this article as is.
You want to resolve a conflict? Go to the roots! I do not approve of internet hatemobs and accusations being thrown in a public space with the intention to shame people. Seriously!

Some Steamers might have noticed something weird on Facebook. Dutch Steamers are putting their their profile pictures on black. Why?
Once again I was confronted with a sad message a talented individual intends to quit Steampunk over 'internal rivaleries'. I attempted to mediate between some of the involved parties to open up communications so at least some frustrations can be vented.

So what happend? [Redacted]

Today Mickey and Mallory announced they would stop with Steampunk due to the ongoing feud between two groups. What happend during Elfia this past weekend was the straw that broke the camels back.
Well known Dutch photographer Ruud de Kort announced to protest what happened, because, according to Ruud, the Knox families 4 year old daughter became involved by passive aggressive ways.  If this is true, it's low. Children are the NO-GO-ZONE!
Putting their profile pictures are their way to send a message to the whole Dutch community, not just the accused! This petty behavior need to end!

Now, details are sketchy and my goal here is not the accuse, but to inform. I won't put my profile picture on black, because I can't say for certain what happened. But I will unite behind the slogan 'Steamers Unite. Don't fight!'

EDIT* To emphasize. I am not advocating for any vigilante, internet lynchmobs or anything! This is a personal vendetta. I, nor you know enough to judge any of this.

Here is Mickey's Goodby message he posted on FB

After having a deep thought we decided to quit Steampunk and everything with it.
We are so sick and tired of being pushed around by others who want to bring us down only out of jealousy and hate or just because they think they are the elite.
We are sick and tired of losing friends who are influenced by others to hate us.
We are biting our tongues long enough to keep the peace.
All i wanted was to create Steampunk things and show it to someone who might like it. Thats all !!.
Dont worry wink emoticon I will go on with my creativity and pick up an old dream of me and thats building my own Hot-Rod ( well actually Rat Rod )
But we sure want to stay away as far as possible from the Steampunk / Fantasy scene.
My own Steampunk Facebook groups will be terminated.
I'm signing out of all the rest of the steampunk groups.
Clockwork Carousel and its good members are not to blame for this we stay good friends.
So to all Steampunk and fantasy friends. Steampunk Mickey and Mallory are signing off.
Im sure some one is laughing in his fist right now.
Thank you for ruining our passion in steampunk
I hope you have a good laugh. You must be proud !!!
