    its a tick box on your preferences page - so you can hide yourself from the who's online bit in the panel. Why anyone would want to do such a thing so as to hide their username which is a mechanism for hiding your identity in itself is a mystery.

    there's a good chance it's (sometimes) rainbow_carnage; she seldom bothers logging in just to read the new posts.

    Ha ha ha ha! What kind of superhero is he supposed to be? Where’d he get all that clobber? A bin bag outside the Mind shop?

    “My dress sense is tingling ... What’s this, what’s this? Navy suit. Grandpa’s hat. White polo-neck and gloves. Oh, lordy, and the piece de resistance … Nan’s pendant. Man, I’m looking goooood.”

    BIFF! BASH! POW! BLING!

    You can get all that down on the Fonthill "Fashion Corridor", I expect.

    Just noticed Lucy has a flag... what's that all about then?

    Schoolboy error! The Phantom Stranger never refers to himself by that name. It's always something vague and portentous like "Who am I? I hope one day you may come to think of me as a friend, but until then I must remain...a stranger."

    @miscara Lucy was given a flag as an experiment about some kind of marketisation by Andy, but then, I think, was allowed to keep it post experiment as pure favouritism.
