I can provide more details, as I have heard the story several times from both Terry and Chris. Basically, Bernard Kyer (BrachioInGen) was a power player. He cared little of helping the community, only for himself. Major points of which he is at fault for included manipulating Terry into believing he was Terry's friend so that he was able to gain power over the website. Once he had it, he hired a few of his friends to be Moderators  that he then did not train how to moderate the forums. Because of this, the power went to these new Moderator's heads and turned the forums into a "dog-eat-dog" place, where either you agreed with the popular opinion or left the site. This caused a lot of the more "Veteran" members of the online Jurassic Park community to leave such as Segisaurus, Beeurd (he still comes around on occasion), Dark_Rex, Pikaia, Whirl-a-way, and others. The forums also became exactly what Jurassic Park Legacy was founded to ward against Instead of being a place where Jurassic Park fans could share ideas about the franchise regardless of opinion, under BrachioInGen's rule if the opinion of BrachioInGen's wasn't the one followed, bans were likely. As Jurassic Park Treasury mentioned, he also held a contest and then refused to ship the prize. He claimed that he had no money to pay for the shipping costs and even when Terry offered to pay half the cost, BrachioInGen continued to refuse to ship them.

He also had a habit of insulting the userbase constantly. HE is the reason you were bitched at by Tyrannosaur. Because BrachioInGen did not like the idea of anybody he didn't approve of suggesting ideas, he made sure that the person who said it was crushed. It wasn't you, MesmeretMonk, you were not the only victim to this abuse. Countless others were defamed so that BrachioInGen could keep his hold over the fandom. He also created a protocol for the moderators to follow, which included severe punishments for minor offenses such as the use of profanity.

The muddling of the Jurassic Park canon was one of the major things that BrachioInGen was faulted for. He created a fanfic that he toted around describing as "the only Jurassic Park 4 we'll ever get", and so used this in order to muddy the canon. He introduced bogus ideas that measured from plain unlikely to flat out lies. Such examples of these are that InGen produced the JP/// Pteranodons by the DNA being mixed with that of Rhamphorhynchus which was the reason for the teeth. He also demanded that the JP/// raptors were more intelliegent than the ones before instead of the fact that they merely display more social interaction. He also insisted that the novel raptors were real Velociraptors crossed with Deinonychus and that InGen must have introduced growth enhancments to the Spinosaurus and the Ceratosaurus from JP/// because he felt they were too "bulky". Nevermind taking a look at the physiology of the real life animals. If he had taken the time to properly do research, he would have found that Spinosaurus was far more robust than popularly portrayed and that the real Ceratosaurus is actually built like a tank with teeth. Many of the ideas that he introduced into the canon stemmed from his own fanfic, which is against JPL Research Policy about fan theories being prohibitted unless you can back them up with facts.

BrachioInGen also delayed Jack De Le Mare's fanfilm, "Prime Survival" on several occasions. After failing to keep in contact for months and continueing to insist that he had a "script in the works" (these are his own words, by the way, which can be found in the Prime Survival thread on JPToys.com), he was then removed from the writing process by Jack and instead placed on sound mixing. He then delayed there as well. After months of delayments, where Jack De La Mare also missed his oppurtunity to release his fanfic at a comic con, BrachioInGen finally produced the sound and music for the fanfic, albeit it was very rushed and not of the best quality.

In the end, after he was given multiple chances to improve himself and his work ethic, he was finally banned. Because of this, BrachioInGen took a few of his cronies (notably Scallenger) and tried besmerching the name of JPL by using evidence against it that was a product of his own reign. At TresCom, he used Scallenger's prominence within the community to turn TresCom against JPL (effectively becoming akin to JPTerror). He also reinstated his tyrannical policies with TresCom such as "if you are a new member, stay out of the way". He doesn't allow for new members to make a name for themselves and allow them to share their own ideas about the franchise and rather feels that only he and his friends have the right to have ideas.
