I think I've found a weird glitch on DS.

I was going through my old PM's and found some that belonged to a member who no longer has a account on DS.

...But here's the weird thing, if I click hugback instead of profile I still get to see all of his hugs...And Journal entries, and friends...???

So even though someone deletes their account, or has been banned, their account is still not really gone???

Weird...

Maybe you get some sort of "past time snapshot" of the page, like how google will snapshot pages (I can't remember the technical name).

Surprise! DS is not as together as is reported. We may not be normal or average, but we are not all stupid! Thanks for bringing this to our community. And never put anything in here you would be afraid to read in the newspaper. Huggs for the weekend, and I hope you are doing well?

Go through your PM's and find someone you know no longer has a profile and hit hugback, and see if it works for you. lol

ugh...I wish they would get their act straight.

I imagine if someone closed their account that means they don't want their stuff to be able to still be accessed! geez DS....
