I think that the ability to strike through your username as Power+ should be removed as it can cause confusion making someone think that, that profile is banned.
 
People have stated this, I don't think they'll remove it, or they should add it so you can only use a color with it.
 
I don't really seeing this being an issue, because in your UserTitle it would say banned if you were. And if someone made their UserTitle banned, you could just open their profile and check.

Take a look at @Hope and @Jamil, Hope is actually banned and his user title doesn't state that he is banned, and Jamil isn't banned.

Lol, who cares? Just look at rep, banned people don't fucking have rep. WHO FUCKING CARES.

I am banned guise @sarcasm

RIP

It says were online, we have rep, and everyone knows we wouldn't be banned and yet they freak out. SMH
 
I agree with this @Flippy very annoying when managing bans and looking at online.php.

@Jamil @Trap and also banned members can be online, I also shouldn't have to check to see if they have rep to tell if they are actually banned or not, the whole point of putting the strike through the banned users name is to tell they're banned.
 
I don't really see it as too big of an issue, except when tagging someone.
I admit that when just viewing a tagged name it would be difficult / impossible to tell if they were banned, it could be confusing, but you can easily view their profile and see they aren't banned.
It isn't an issue at all when seeing the postbit, as banned users do not have signatures, a display group or rep. Not too big of an issue IMO but some may find it annoying.

I'm not really sure why you people keep mentioning the fact the banned people don't have reputation. The strike is to dignify that a member is banned, not their reputation. Mods don't have reputation but they aren't banned. Same goes for @"Philly".

I thought about this and users can already go on line and generate striked text so it doesn't really matter.

I thought I had a fly or something on my screen.. turned out to be your sig.
ot: I'm new here and all but I don't think its posing that big of a problem. To me it seems like it would only affect mods (confusing them or whatnot) so its up to them i guess

Not many members did that though, with this feature being added it just allows people to do it even easier
