I seem to remember there was some really annoying member here a while ago ("Uncle Mike", maybe?) who pissed a lot of people off, and when they talked back to him, he threatened to close his account. When he was told to go right ahead, he requested to have his account closed, and suddenly all of his posts became "guest".

So, in summary... put away the tinfoil hats, people. There's no sooper seekrit "guest" status; just commit DDF suicide and you'll become one. Kinda like Obi Wan-Kenobi becoming a Jedi spirit.

Here's one for you. "334 guests 204 users (2 hidden"), who's hidden ?

I thought of that as well. Why have a hidden category, & who's the second ?

Could be another admin, or even a maintenance bot or something.

Back in 2010 I won Lifetime Platinum Elite status (see http://www.dansdeals.com/archives/8120 ) and until recently
thats what my profile showed (one line showing gold as per my post count & under that it said lifetime platinum elite).
Recently that has disappeared. Anyone know why?

On a side note, did you genuinely revoke someone's complimentary status after gifting it? If a REAL loyalty program did that they would never hear the end of it!

"UPDATE: Newest member “SHAFELE” has earned himself Lifetime Platinum! Congratulations!
UPDATE 2: There were many members who had registered but had never activated their accounts. We cleaned that up and there are now 970 members — 4 who have registered in the last 20 minutes. Let’s keep it going and the 1,000th will get that coveted Lifetime Platinum Elite Membership!
UPDATE 3: Congratulations as well to forums member “GOGREEN” who is our newest 1,000th member. We’ve had over 30 signups today! Great job!"
