How can someone who got a PNG be 'last active' on the boards after said PNG?  :headscratch:

Does it indicate a temporary ban? Perhaps they are allowed to read before they post.

A friend of mine got PNGed, which was most inconvenient since I was in the middle of a conversation with him and do not have his email address. When I checked his status, it said 'last online' only a few days ago, and he was PNGed about three weeks ago.

How come?

It probably refreshes every time they log in, even if it's just to see the "you've got ban!" screen.

Please pardon my ignorance but what does PNG stand for?  I have deduced that it means being banned from the boards.....  just unsure of the acronym specifically.

Thanks,  Nishizwa

Persona non grata I think.

This is from Dictionary.com

perˇsoˇna non graˇta
[per-soh-nah nohn grah-tah; English per-soh-nuh non grah-tuh, grey-, grat-uh] plural perˇsoˇnae non graˇtae [per-soh-nahy nohn grah-tahy; English per-soh-nee non grah-tee, grey-, grat-ee] Latin.
1. a person who is not welcome: He has become  persona non grata in our club since his angry outburst.

2. a diplomatic representative unacceptable to an accrediting government.

Ooooh!  How embarrassking, to think I could have masked my ignorance by simply googling it, sadly, I assumed it was exclusive to the Aces High Lexicon. Nevertheless, many thanks for enlightening me.  :aok
