Back in my day when somebody on a forum would make a dramatic exit, we called it "flouncing".
If you saw a flounce message from someone you never heard of before, that person was typically a shit-stirrer, angry about not getting their drama needs met.
People who were important to the community never flounced. They just faded away quietly when they felt mistreated. And, if the community was lucky, they'd come back later, after getting some rest and perspective.
