Line through username… meaning?

I have read through some posts where I see a line drawn through someone’s username. What does that mean?

 

I believe that means that since the post the user has been banned.

 

That was my initial thought but some have the word “Moderator” under their name. How does a Mod get banned from their own site?

 

I believe there's some kind of TacomaWorld "club" you can join (for a fee) that is also designated by a line through the username.

 

There are a few different types of lines. For example blue or red in support of LEO & first responders. May be more than that.

 

Banned, special, or a computer nerd.

 

Mine is because I'm a retired firefighter

 

I'd like one under my name, in black.

To honor Johnny Cash, man in black, and one of my favs, 'I Walk the Line'

 

I too am searching for the meaning of this. Did you find out OP?

 

It means you did not read or understand the code of conduct, and/or you are just a vicious, stupid, trolling dickhead who has been cordially invited to go play on the train tracks.

Oh of course the code of conduct. The thing that says you should be uncivil and calling people stupid dickheads? How could I be so vicious!
