When Ruqqus decided they needed shekels more than respect for their users, so they allow users to dig up the graves of banned users. Then they skin the corpse and wear like a body suit in a necrophilic masquerade.

Memes I made about it: https://pic8.co/a/306139e8-e6ed-4466-90c3-84110b4dcd16/abfff84d-c0a0-4cb8-b5ba-34c2b0778cbe/

If you're from Ruqqus, please spread these memes there. Link to this post if you want.

Code where all banned and deleted accounts lose their names in favor the homogenous "_account_" names: https://github.com/ruqqus/ruqqus/blob/master/scripts/namerelease.py

Example of all my posts being given the new forced account name: https://ruqqus.com/+50CentArmy

Maybe not on purpose but they lied nonetheless. These users are now somewhat more "anonymous" but these accounts can still be identified which is stupid. So no, they aren't "banned with no remaining visible content", the admins are just being idiotic liars (or rather cm4 is) and somehow managed to screw this up beyond belief.

I interpreted that as "If a banned user has no public posts and comments, their username will be changed. Otherwise, they will retain their original name". But yes, they did screw this one up.

One example post of no response from admins:

Yup. Maybe should try tagging one of the admins there. Then we'll know if they saw the post and chose not to respond.

I don't get why they didn't just go with a nickname system

That sounds like a good idea. So you'd have a nickname that's publicly displayed (maybe even varying from guild to guild) as well as a unique identifier (username/id)?

The update isn't about functionality. It's about squeezing as much money as possible out of their dying platform.

Makes sense. They've only been hitting about 50% to 70% of their donation goal lately.

Also, their search system broke. Searching for keywords in specific guilds doesn't work.

A reasonable interpretation, but it doesn't reflect the reality of the situation

Maybe @ Mysterious101Own should try tagging one of the admins there. Then we'll know if they saw the post and chose not to respond.

Agreed, maybe we'd see some action from the admins Also, disconnected @ from Mysterious username, don't want to give him two pings.

That's what I had in mind, yes. Similar to how Twitter and Gab do nicknames.

Also, their search system broke. Searching for keywords in specific guilds doesn't work.

I believe I encountered that as well.
