If he'd considered how obnoxious his abrupt message sounded to those whose blogs had vaporized (and to their readers), the flap could have been avoided altogether.
If he'd said: "I really sorry all your blogs are unavailable. I'll do my best to archive them for you and help you find alternative hosting..." the reaction would have been much more muted.
Instead, his posting was rude and belligerent, and assumed the worst about others.
