The running thread of commonality I heard was that it no longer served its purpose, in one way or another.
Wasn't anywhere really like its former glory, didn't fit in with the rest of the site, was an extra chat board on a board with an overabundance already, or just existed as a place to build grudges, are some of the few I recall off hand.
There were some really good posts in the /ef/ thread itself, but sadly I think everything got axed with it. Guess that's to be expected.
