    In the posers and puzzles forum there are a lot of posts by this dude
    'removed'. Was that the dude's handle here or was the real name blocked out and Removed with a line through it is up there now.

    Looks like the handle was @joe-shmo, from responses and quotes in some of those threads.

    He was removed at his own request.

    I remember seeing some posts by the guy just before he was "removed".

    Quite a few users have done this 🤔

    Either by request or admins found the name offensive I guess 🤷

    Maybe with all of the head hunting in regards to online posts and cancel culture this maybe has scared some people and they are trying to erase their online past?

    YUP,
    Many have changed their names and tried to change their persona, some have managed to do so, but everyone can tell who they use to be. Many will forget over time. I was going to change mine, because people had complained about me not being Very Rusty, but Russ said no need. I kind of got attached to Very Rusty's don't care attitude. 🙂

    @Very-Rusty

    I imagine some posters have successful lives and if their posts became public knowledge it could hurt their career so maybe they had everything removed?

    One user...Sicilian Smaug or something like that had all of his posts completely removed.

    So did Duchess64...

    Kidnapped by polar bears, held to ransom for 10 fish and one baby seal, the baby seal was a step too far and the original very rusty is no more, may he rip.

    I am the original Very Rusty!

    My persona has changed from time to time, but I've always kept the name.
