Why is it when some members leave / are banned they are still on the board but with no post count whereas others disappear completely without a trace like Pinky.

i have a couple theories,

alien abduction

banishment by admin as opposed to self banishment??

Kidnapped and awaiting ransome?

Coercion by past members of other forums?

Beer?

Oh heck you didn't want a serious answer did you???

ok my deductions on what I know, if you ask to be banned you are wiped out... ie tmbsgirl and snooze 0 records on these 2 I think they asked to be removed. If you are banned by admin then I think your record stands.

I believe that you an ask to have your access revoked or you can ask for your persona to be removed.

Similarly, Admin can ban you and lock you out or they can ban you and delete your persona.

US Customs accidentally deleted my persona one day... that was creepy ok never mind that don't count for this thread, I think I am back now.

Hmmm ok I guess this mystery is for TombStone to answer, I am far to confused.

oooooooooooooooooo I get it now, her record of posts is left behind while others are not, perhaps it's the level of infraction, I know for a fact tmbsgirl asked to be deleted, I remember others have been outright banned. I bet that is it.

So she must have asked to have her persona removed as even if your banned or leave voluntary your old posts remain, just the post count goes.

Oi Spot where are you? Come & clear this up.

For some reason Pinky's posts were deleted but the indexes were not updated in step and, with the number of posts she'd made, that left many of the thread terminators pointing to pages that didn't exist.

Why this should happen I've no idea as I've never worked with the software involved.

could be sign of the times as well, cause I see LC is stated as Banned and her posts exist, Tmbsgirl asked to be removed her posts still exist, maybe it's new procedures with new era.

Pinky is on an invisible ban....her posts went invisible and she can come back at a later date, and when she does, her posts will be back for us all to see again!!!:yh_clap:yh_party

Basically a "please be quiet" ban....

as far as Tmbsgrl, she closed that account and we know and love her as Angel Eyes....

I miss Pinky being here too!!

So if it says banned by a members name, then they really are banned?

I thought it was a joke that a member would post
