question about members « on: June 12, 2022, 03:44:16 AM » Author: vytautas_lamps
Hi there, I don't follow all news on this site, and I am a bit confused as of why some of the main members are now just guests? Like, I go on older posts to see some of my favorite uploads and I see that the guy who been here for a long time is now either mister X or still has its name, but in the comments where the author is posting a comment, it just says 'guest' and its name under. I noticed that members like freekstar, bean, and some others have become just guests for some reason. Why is that? have they left the site? or have they been kicked out? how do I know that this will not happen to me?  Thank you for your comments

New lighting technologies is a pity fest everywhere you look. From LEDs that last only for two months, to a never-ending global starvation of t8 fluorescent tubes.

I've noticed it too. In one of my cases, I spotted a lone comment from a user who left the site and all their message board topics and photos were gone but this one single comment they had made on another user's photo remains but oddly their rank and username that links to the profile page is still there.

Fluro starter pings combined with a 50hz ballast hum and blinking tubes is music to my ears.

I wonder what happened to the user "Bean", who has replied to my posts many times.
