Simple, there are some new administrators at the mat which have gone overboard banning people, some like JensenS without reason because he asked a question of the moderators.
He and several others have since been reinstated to participation on the mat as a result of the "mistakes" made. There were some that were banned, that imo deserved being banned, many others however where mistakes were made like JensenS, thus the reason for reinstatement, and at least in this situation an apology.
Many of those are rather upset at the actions and the way they were handled. It should be clear, that not even the moderators were aware of the actions or the reasons; in fact, up to this point the moderators have not been given guidelines or reasons for the bannings, and/or reinstatements.
As a side note, there are actually several national wrestling forums that have been around, JensenS is just the most recent picking up members as a result of the actions at The Mat.
