Not sure if anyone has noticed this before, but with almost no research I think I found a bug. In the past, account deletion existed. We all know this. Most of us know that when an account is deleted and they are the OP of a thread and the thread is viewed on the main forum page (example),their name comes up as "Anonymous User (Deleted). However, if you look at the last reply, it will always show the user name even if their account is deleted. For another example, look at the last thread on this page. The user who posted last is "GhostOfSorrow" but when the thread is clicked on, the last post is from a deleted user.

Sorry if this doesn't make any sense, I got no sleep last night but I did the best I could.

I read it wrong. But its nice to see the older generation. Wonder why they left and how many are still here with alt accounts.

I don't know if it's a bug or if it's intended, but either way, I'd like it to remain as it is.

It's nice to actually see some usernames on those pages, rather than constant deleted users.

It doesn't really matter if it stays or not. I'm not even completely sure why I pointed this out. But I don't see the point in leaving the names there on purpose because the profile is deleted so you just get an error page.

It's not a bug, it's just how posting works.

like this:
Posterredingtington by: Doesn't-have-to-be-a-actual-account
Izak609 is making a point that the [quote][/quote] feature isn't made to copy a real post, it's more of a way for a user to state "this is what I think this guy said" -[random guy]


In other words, at the time it was written, it was correct, and that's the only reason why it looks like that.
