I'm sorry to hear that you're dealing with drama. I thought you'd had such a good experience there and it saddens me to hear that things have devolved.
As an FYI, I'm working on putting together a con in Raleigh, NC, for 2012. If there's anything about what's happening that I can learn from in the sense of "you should avoid this" I'd love to hear it. My goal is a drama-free, sustainable, fun, immersion experience con so I'm pinging people right and left for advice.
Hugs!
