A forum I follow and sometimes comment on has the logo in grey and a line through it. What is this?
it's the avatar of the person who started the thread, so it doesn't change
As stated by @wench it means that the user who started the thread ("Confucius say") is banned from the site. What you're seeing is the avatar of the user who started each thread. That's how it works.
Ah!
Forums don't have logos. Are you sure that's not a user avatar, specifically the one for a closed or banned account?
Not sure. See pic attached. First dates Ireland logo thingy
Those are indeed user avatars, and not forum logos.
But it’s like that 24/7 on the first dates. What’s it about?
You've already been told - the person who started the thread is site-banned, so that's how their avatar appears.
Mr E started the RIP thread, therefore you see his avatar beside that one, and so on and so forth. They don't change either.
You're seeing posts out of order, presumably because this was asked as a question type thread, and an answer was selected, which appears at the top instead on chronological sequence.
Question answered by @wench with thanks. Discussion closed and archived,
