    Default Banned on Members List.

    Ok, it has come to my attention that Cbc was banned. However, while I was looking in the Members List for screen names, I had no idea that he was banned, because I usually don't click on the screen names to view their profiles. However, I was wondering, is it possible to include a bold pink ban besides their names in the members list? Really, I have no qualms if the staff don't do this, but I think it would help some to see who's banned among the thousands of members of EoFF by looking at the Members List without having to check any profiles, as that's probably the only way for regular members to know who's banned or not.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    Well, even Proto won't, I most certainly will have qualms if the staff don't do this, but mainly because I like the word qualms.

    That sounds like a good idea.

    Also probably add in the user notes who is banned, Staff Member, CK, etc, again before the vB upgrade.

    Yeah I agree with Mr. Proto. I was shuffling through the members to see who all I remember. Then when clicking on some profiles and finding them banned was kinda odd for me. I think it is a good, valid Idea.

    I dunno.. it is quite a delightful surprise when you accidently find someone is banned.

    Like a bucket lid throwing contest. Psycotic can be the judge, and the time won't matter. The mood will be mellow. Slabs his of broken childhood will stab at our ribs, however.

    Whoa! Hold up there Proto. This is a good idea. Don't you know they throw those away in a vault.

    To spit you they shall just make it so you never know who is banned again. That will show you for your defiance

    This is up to an admin to determine the feasibility, but otherwise I think it would be nice. If possible we could display other group titles too, like Site Staff/Cid's Knight/RM/etc...

    In all reality this would not be that hard to do. Add another column to the list and add that field to the SQL query is the long and short of it.

    Someone caring enough to do this is the real question. I don't know much about the VBB but it seems that simple from just thinking about it

    Would this mean that you all get to see the little goodbye comments we leave with people as they leave our site?

    I don't know, but I doubt that would be the case. Not like I would really care about the comments you staffers would leave.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    That would sound easy, but since we prefer to add plugins and edit templates and avoid hacking the forum software, it's not quite this simple


    I suppose the strikethrough names like in the Who's Online bit might work though

    Of course! Plugins and stuff. I just knew it couldn't be as simple as a few simple code changes >_<
