Effectively, japhroaig has had his account name changed, his avatar deleted, etc. No trace of the man and regular we all knew and loved exists now. For a time, his shadow walked among us, but now even that too is gone.
What I like about Proboards - a forum host - is that they have given the users the power to irrevocably delete their user account and all their posts with it, without requiring board runners to intervene or take action. Discourse should have had that feature to begin with.
