Default A forum suggestion.....?

I was recently reading a thread in which another poster stated that a previous poster passed away since the last post, so there was no need to reply to that person.

I am on another forum where when a regular poster passes away the Administration changes his member status from like "regular member" to "eternal Member". This is done tastefully, and shows others that this person will not be posting any longer.

Just a thought...........

Frank

Frank,
I love the idea of "eternal" status for members who have passed on. It's lovely.

What a lovely sentiment. I own a parenting board and will definitely start doing that there. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful way to express our losses in a positive way.

So, I third (or fourth) that!
