    I was thinking maybe a departure section under the Intro section for people that are leaving the forum. It would be nice because it would be a great for departing people to give everybody a heads-up and an explanation about why. I've seen scattered departure notices in the SPAM section, but this would be like a section dedicated to this so you could easily rummage through it and find the person and reason :p .

    Yes or no?

    No.
    Just no. If someone wants to leave, they can go right ahead. Since people don't leave constantly (like some people *cough*Royal*cough*) it'd be simply a waste of space and it'd be incredibly inactive....except for Royal.

    Good idea in my opinion.

    Even for hiatuses, like a week vacation or extreme studying for exams or loss of internet. :p

    I don't see anything wrong with this idea. With the current layout, people usually post in the spam corner for departure notices. Creating the extra sub-forum would add a little more order to the forums. And for a historical perspective, it serves as a log/memorial for past members.
