Since BB/Snappy is one of those deleted users, I imagine so, yes.

Strange isn't it. Snapcase, does it mean those users are on your list or you cannot read their posts?
I've never noticed anything like that...

probably a hold over of the UBB days. They may not be deleted users at all, just another case of, "Why is MarkG a guest and on my ignore list?"

Yeah, I noticed a long time ago and just a few minutes ago with Chaos Warrior's sound problem in Imperialism thread that Ecthelion bumped.

It's probably just as simple at all guestsare on the ignore list. Couldn't be so hard to fix, but Markos doesn't have mush time right now, so I guess it will stay the way it is.

It's probably not worth his time... deleted users are a very rare event. DL's and problem posters (people who register to post commercial messages) are just banned... not deleted. Deleting accounts just allows the person to register again... or for somebody else to use the deleted name.

Well, all the users from the time where the username could be chaned by the user without changing the name of all posts. They are guests, but it's mostly an archive problem, and then it's another problem. That the view thae hidden posts doesn't work for the archive.

it is a bit of a pity becuae some of the archived posts from myself are ignored by myself  whilst most of what i say maybe construed as drivel. my posts about games played in civ2MP forum archives were pretty good and meaniningful to those who palyed the game. is there any way of fising this so those posters are not ignored.

Don't the ignored posts still have a link you can use to view what they posted? I know for a fact that the server still has their posts stored (due to the fact that I don't ignore deleted poster's posts). If so, then you can still read what the older threads say, albeit with more effort than newer threads.
