Good evening,
----------------------------------------I would like to ask, whether it would be possible to stop changing Member Names into "former member" when they stop cruching. Seeing the really large contribution by some of my fellow crunchers (10 years and more, much more) I think, that it woulc be an expession of honour for their efforts, if their member name would not be changed if they stop contributing. All badges and all posts should be preserved as their digital heritage. If preserving all member names would technically produce a too large, costly database, we can discuss conditions for presrving For example only members with at least one gold badge or so..... My fellow crunchers, what do you think? Some very nice people cruch here to their own end (see old chap) Sad, sad, do not erase anybody, please.

I think all the "former member"(s) asked to be removed. It's not changed just because they stop crunching.

@Martin,
----------------------------------------it is the way used by WCG to comply with GDPR requirements. There was in the past very long and frustrating discussions regarding the interpretation of GDPR and its implementation at WCG. "former member" is not disrespectful, it is only the chosen way to comply with GDPR requirements regarding the retention of privacy relevant data which must be time-limited after the end of the "relationship" between member and WCG. Cheers, Yves |

Hello Yves, Hello BladeD, good morning everybody,
----------------------------------------Thank you for your answers. Well, regulations must not always give the result desired by the individual. But, so be it. Let us close the discussion and crunch as fast as we can Best MS [Edit 1 times, last edit by Martin Schnellinger at Feb 8, 2021 6:51:42 AM] |
