Lightbulb I just saw this...

I won't answer the poll since I don't post here much, don't have PD, but I do read here.

This request by DocJohn, reminds me of a situation that happened at OBT.
When a poster passes away, it would be nice if administration could put
IN Memorium under their name. ( or a similar term).

This would alert the whole board, and seems socially the right thing to do.

At OBT for those who were not involved or saw this, the original poster died suddenly and that ID was banned. A family member used it to communicate on the board. This banning was uncompassionate, and stirred up alot of resentment...all things not appropriate to the event. In the end, that ID was restored I believe, but not after much acrimony.

I am sure this would not happen here, but I think it is important to have
some idea as to what would be appropriate in the event of death.

So I just wanted my 2 cents in here...and Thanks to DocJohn for being
available.
