To me this looks like a wave of new accounts spreading fud about BTC-E to cause a further price drop.
(edit: it's only two accounts atm but I expected more to come)
BTC-E suspended my brothers account, ok yeah he may have been trolling the chat, and admin. But they kept ~40 LTC. After numerous support tickets, they reply in the morning, and if he doesn't respond fast enough, they close the ticket. It's not all fud, suspending an account, fine, keeping all the LTC is theft.
