I was posted by Pbondar but now shows as above - Is it a server/computer glitch?

ronk, that’s what appears after a user account is deleted.

I have to say that's what I assumed but it has come as a bit of a surprise to be honest.
Pete was an active member who contributed a lot and I hadn't noticed any untoward posts leading up to this.

It came up on the greg81 thread the other day as well. There are two ways an account would be deleted -
1. For bad behaviour, and actually they usually just get banned and not deleted.
2. If we get a request to delete a user account, we firstly make sure that the user is aware that the deletion cannot be undone so if they want to return in the future, they need to register again and would have zero posts.
And if they’re still sure, then it gets toasted.

He has gone. Didn't even say goodbye. Seems odd.

So if a user asks for his account to be deleted, does that remove all his posts?
Does that then mean really useful threads end up with big holes in them?
If that is the case then it is a particularly churlish move!
I would never consider doing that as, regardless of the reasons, to suddenly take away that valuable resource from all the other current and future members would be a low blow indeed.

So Pbondar has left the forum? That, even to a relative noob like me, seems very strange.

Posts are always kept (even yours Stevo) we never delete them, and on the forum itself it’s always clear who posted - the ‘Anonymous’ user is only in the PM section of the forum, probably just an anomaly.
The easiest way to leave here is to simply never come back again.
Maybe Peter will be back.
