So say if an account were to be deleted, however that might happen - would that mean the posts remain, but...anonymously? Or the posts disappear? Or...what?

I recently saw a thread that featured a post by permabanned linus - the post was still there, as was his name, with the caption "banned" under it -
When someone deletes their account, the posts remain, the user details are removed and marked as "Guest".Comment

Thanks. Is there any distinction between two such people, or would they both just be "Guest" with no way for the reader to distinguish?Comment

The latter - no way to distinguish.Comment

Final question - how would someone delete their account?Comment

By sending a PM to me.
What I actually prefer to do/recommend in such instances is me scrambling the password to prevent the account holder being tempted to try to get back into it, while still leaving it there should they want to come back.Comment
