    Could having this sort of feature at bottom of main menu, below the active members and the "Welcome to our newest member" have any use?
     
    Why? o_O Bans are a private matter and if listed there so publically, it'd probably make the user feel more ashamed (if they're not perma, because if they're perma they probably don't care) and raise more questions about why they're banned. Plus you don't really want bans to be something worth noting. And a lot of the time, adbots are banned, we don't really want to be saying farewell to an adbot.
     
    Pretty much what Forever said. That would almost be encouraging that people speculate on why a member was banned or shame them for it off of PC or just to other PC members. Seems like a very negative suggestion, what's your reasoning for why it would be there?

    Edit: Ooh wow this is pretty gang up-y. Sorry about that. :(
     
    Let's not embarrass them more than they already are.

    what about a "## days since we last banned" Are bans even worth tracking?

    No, not if you're not the one who's doing the banning. I don't see the point in doing that.
     
    Nah, again, that should stay between staff. :x Cause really, nobody needs to know when anyone at all was last banned. I guess the only thing that could really apply here of a positive nature would be how many days since someone was last modded, but that's kind of not needed in itself.
     
    As for figuring out how long a person was banned, look at the last login date or the date of their last post. That should/will give you a (somewhat) accurate date of when they were banned.
     
    I also agree with the majority, it would just be embarrassing the member and it would be really negative. I would much rather Nica's idea of last person modded, or maybe last person donated would be nicer.
