Most of these users are former {{bp|Editorial Board}} members as they retain the ability to return at any time, barring a forced departure. These users have no power on the site, but are still considered a higher rank than a standard user. A staff member may be involuntarily changed to this status if they let their account go dormant for a period of time as determined by the current Editorial Board.
