 I do not know about you, but I'd think Leo would have expected us to cherish those memories we have of him on the forum in a good way instead of being nostalgic and feeling sad. It's true his contributions to this place greatly impacted others, but let's not feel like so sad that we forget to appreciate his works here. No offense to the Op, but since a thread has been created relating to him, I felt maybe this could have like been created to be like a museum of sorts, detailing his works and what he helped each of us here understand about Bitcoin and privacy, instead of talking of we won't see him again.
 Death of a loved one is one news that would never sit well in the minds of people no matter how painless it is on the individual but I know that O_e_l_e_o has found peace in that knowledge and is doing ho best to live a happy and fulfilled life, no matter how short it is right now, so I feel we should try and be that way too; happy.

@PrivacyG, why can you not post this on Leo's farewell thread instead? Leo posted that topic just 8 days ago. For you to open a new thread about it in just a short time is not better at all. If t is now a year or some years, we can say it is good, but in this short time as you have just known about Leo farewell thread, just make use of the Leo's thread to post what you want to post.
Ah... From the write up of the Op, you can see the article needs a separate thread because if he wrote it in the o_e_l_e_o's Farewell thread, many people will not see it and read. So it is better for him to create a separate thread for it and if you really understand this thread, you will notice that it is not a sympathy thread but it is an empathy thread. He wrote the thing and fell the departure of Leo and still having the imagination that Leo will come back again when everything is alright for him in healthwise. But one part will be decided by Leo, either to come back or to leave the forum after if he has recovered from the health challenge. But the re-announcement of o_e_l_e_o's return bro the forum will be joyous celebration events in the forum. Leo was not a conservativist but he was a progressivist from the leftist school of thought who has everyone in the forum to be protected from centralized mindset scholars. He believed in the cryptocurrency decentralism.

Ahhh....I say let him have the thread.  He was obviously touched by o_e_l_e_o's presence and was struck by his absence such that he wanted to make his own thread in which he laid out his feelings for Leo.  This one will probably drop off the radar before the first one does, so.

Dr. Leo did make quite the impression on a lot of folks here, including myself and I'm also sad to see him go--and for the reason that he's going.  I don't know all the details, but his absence will be felt by everyone who respected his knowledge, level-headedness, and willingness to help others.  I'm still hoping for a miracle.
Exactly, motional feelings were displayed here in the op and they are users that are still in the forum that people still cherish and the same magnitude of empathy will still happen to them when they give their official declaration of leaving the community. Leo had impacted knowledge and given the awareness campaign on privacy to the core before leaving the forum so the absence of Leo is something difficult for some people to still believe because of the straight forward answers given to questions concerning bitcoin and wallet analysis.

o_e_l_e_o was last active on 22 January. In his farewell thread, he mentioned that the account would soon be banned after he is done with his final goodbyes. BPIP doesn't show such accounts (locked) as banned. That's also the case with Lauda and satoshi. I just checked the modlog and there is no information there either. Anyone knows if the account has been locked/banned already?

Although, I don't really know either that account of o_e_l_e_o is banned or locked but I'm sure that no one will be able to use that account from now on because he left the forum himself and shared something that we all understand is a final goodbye to the family.

When Lauda left the forum no one yet used that account after that and similarly the o_e_l_e_o's account won't be used by anyone because he willingly left the forum for a genuine reason and that's why he left his farewall message for us.

I think an admin or a global moderator might be able to shade some light that what happens with such accounts when owners willingly share farewell messages and say that they won't be using the forum anymore.

Yes, I can confirm that o_e_l_e_o's account is banned/locked.
Here's what I see :



And I noticed that shortly after his topic was locked.

You are a staff member, can you comment on what is the difference between the type of ban on o_e_l_e_o's account and someone that gets banned for any rule infringements, like plagiarism? I mean, why doesn't it show as banned on BPIP's website but only if you have the BPIP extension installed?

Visually, if a user is temporarily banned or permanently banned or nuked or if that user has locked his account, I will see the same thing : User is currently banned.
BPIP must monitor the modlog, but as no moderator has acted on o_e_l_e_o's account, lock does not appear and BPIP has not seen it. BPIP will need to take manual action to correct the status of o_e_l_e_o's account on BPIP (but that's not something they seem to do).

There is also something that I noticed in o_e_l_e_o's thread.
o_e_l_e_o said: "In a week or so, once this thread has run its course, I'll ask theymos to lock this account."
Is locking something different? Perhaps something that acts like a ban, but not in the sense of "I ban you for insulting". I hope it makes sense.

edit: according to Halab, it looks like the account is locked, not banned.

We are all going to miss Leo, he made his little time worthwhile and has given his immense contributions on privacy to the community at large, we cant afford to see people like him being rendered helpless with health challenges, i hope nature give his the very good comfort he deserves and to eat the benefits of all his goods works here and on earth, life is sometimes cruel on us but we cant just question why, his maximum aim was achieved here on bitcointalk and we are all going to miss him.

I am still a bit confused. Someone did act and took action against the account as it's currently banned. That ban or account lock was issues by someone, either theymos or someone with similar permissions. And the action is permanent. Well, nothing is exactly permanent because even a permanent ban can be revoked. Is the account now in a status similar to when someone tries to restart the password via email and it causes the Bitcointalk account to become locked?

Ok comparing with other cases, I'm pretty sure now that it was an admin who locked o_e_l_e_o's account.
Password reset via secret question appears in BPIP as for this user and the account appears banned. This is not the case for o_e_l_e_o.
It doesn't really matter who locked/banned the account, the result is the same.

IStaff members or global moderators don't know that who locked the account? If that's true then only admins have information about the accounts that they lock, I mean they might be able to see that which admin locked an account. If I'm not wrong then Theymos, and Cyrus both can see that who locked the account or only one of them can see it who locked that account?

Is locking something different?
I assume this happened:
I will request that theymos ban the "Lauda" account (u=101872)
Done. Lauda is banned in the same way as satoshi, such that it isn't possible to even log into the account anymore.
It ensures nobody can ever abuse the account, so there's no need to spoil o_e_l_e_o's legacy with red warning tags.
