A post in remembrance of an old, odd friend. Cross post to the DU Lounge

O.K., some of you might not have liked him, but he left this for us to remember him by:

1. That is a classic

Funniest 'I am leaving DU' thread ever.

:rofl:

2. Yes, but it is odd, maybe it's probationary?

Because usually the screen name is removed too?

3. No it isn't probationary

4. Yes, I understand that, but usually it says...

... "Name Removed" instead of leaving his name on the post.

It sort of reminds of England in the Middle Ages, when they would put the head of executed an criminal on a pike in the town square, you know what I'm sayin'? Not that it's a bad thing, just curious.:shrug:

5. It only says "Name Removed" if a moderator removes the post...

the act of removing the post is separate from the banning itself.

6. Can't we let this go?

Bad enough it happened. Why is it dredged up for like four days in a row?

7. Locking

Tombstoned and dead aren't quite the same thing...
