Profile image shows even though banned
Mar 28 2009, 5:22 PM EDT | Post edited: Mar 28 2009, 5:22 PM EDT
On MWS, one of my accounts was banned. Usually, the profile image goes away if you are banned. However, mine did not go away. It was a veto stamp before I was banned and it still is a veto stamp. The profile image did not go to that grey person thing. Why?
Thanks, WWS

No. It should automatically be removed when you are banned. But it is not.

Actually, profile images are not automatically removed. If you are an Administrator, you can remove their profile image by clicking the link just below it. Do you find this valuable?

It still shows if you go to their profile, but if you see that person/account's username on a thread or message, the picture is that gray picture thing. Do you find this valuable?

Not for me it doesnt. It shows a big red veto stamp. That was my profile image before that account was banned. I dont understand it.

Even for threads and messages? You were banned right? Instead of your account was cancelled?

My account was banned. I did not cancel my account. The profile image shows on threads even though I was banned. Kind of weird.

Wetpaint now shows the persons profile image so that its easier to track banned users(i think that's why). Do you find this valuable?
