Having been on this forum for a short time I still have recognised the value on some of the contributors.

Als , "Catchelot" recent passing caused me to reflect on some of the great help, enjoyment and knowledge and banter I've gained over my time using this forum.

So I propose an option that Grunta can establish that certain individuals are meritorious enough to save there handles.

Now I maybe alone, but this post is to gauge if there is any merit in my suggestion.

The keyboard is yours.

That would be a nice touch.Good idea Mattoo

Maybe a life member/hall of fame with a short blurb on them.

Legends always deserve to be remembered

Yes , we do have that already . 

So what is meant by saving their handles?, other than ensuring no one else can use that handle?, which i doubt could happen unless the profile is removed..which they arent...

Thanks guys.
My thought was that no one else could ever have that handle, so there forum name was permanently preserved.
The Hall of fame I know about, but it was preserving the forum name and Skoti points out another two justifiably deserving.
It will be up to Grant to make that call.
What's your thoughts Grant.

Actually Grant D, could be a couple of articles there on a least one, Lethal, I know you have referenced him a few times in your articles but as the two publications are entwined now it would be good to see some more info regarding the forum in print.

Just some thoughts.
