People could leave a message under their "About Me" heading.
Or they could even change their signature line to reflect their changed status.
Both are visible when you view another member's profile tab.
I guess I can also be included in the count of those who don't understand the whole GBCW Swan Song thing, having also seen it in action on a few other discussion groups.
"I'M LEAVING AND NEVER COMING BACK!!!!"
um, yeah. Until a week later when they're back again like nothing ever happened. Meanwhile, all the person's "friends" are sobbing and begging him not to go away. Didn't matter how many times it happened, either. People would get sucked into the drama.
As for myself, I have no illusions about such an action on my part. Very few would care, whether I announced it or not. It's OK, though. Really.
So if I were to leave DU, that's what I would do. A short sentence or two on my profile page and that's it. Those who cared would find it.
