ActiveRain Practices: Deceased Members

Reblogger Will Hamm

Roy Kelley came up with a great suggestion for the higher up in the Rain to consider.

ActiveRain Practices: Deceased Members

 

Some of the newer members of ActiveRain may not know that some of the blogger members have passed away. Many of the reblogs were written by deceased members. It would be nice if there were some kind of designation or note indicating that they are no longer alive.

Perhaps the word 'Deceased' could be placed behind the name of the known dead and the word 'Inactive' could be placed behind the name of those who have not been on the site for a year or more.

My suggestion is not an effort to find ways to honor deceased members. That can be done in blog posts. I am only hoping for simple designations.

What are your thoughts on this topic?

We are all getting older and more of us will die.  It would be nice for those who are no longer here to be designated.  Great idea.

Dear Will,

I thought so too. After ten plus years, a few have left us for the permanent hunting grounds.

Yes Will there are some great bloggers who are now on Active Rain in the Sky and quiet frankly I do not think it matters to them as much as to some that are left behind...Endre

Morning Will.

I saw this when Roy first posted it.  The quandary will continue, well after I'm gone.

Will, I remember when Roy posted this and I thought it was such an excellent idea. I hope that some type of designation is added to those who have left us.

I so agree and wish the Rain Gods would review the suggestions made in the Rain.

Good morning Will. I thought an Emeritus Staus would do the trick. Nothing has happened.

I like this idea, it would be a shame to lose the wisdom of those who have left the site voluntarily or through death.
