Hi, still on leave/vacation but sneaked online to see what other folks are up to. Being on the periphery of fandom as I am (never gone to a Gathering, no time for chat rooms) I've missed a lot of the news & gossip, but I still figured out who most of the players are in this little tale. Except for one: who's the little kitty that's getting the complaints now? Syrin? I know she's listed as the webmistress, but as I said, I'm out of the loop for a lot of info.
Just to play Devil's Advocate on one point, since TGS was trying to stay at a PG-13 or lighter level, Thailog ripping Claw's wings off would definitely be over the boundary. Since the wings are living limbs and Claw is sentient and counts as "human", DISMEMBERMENT of a human generally merits an 'R' rating, or did last time I looked at the rating guidelines.
And why not have an episode where Goliath turns human for a while? Angela and the Trio had their turn.

But for the rest, yeah, that's pretty pissy.
