Single post in Display a symbol of some sort to designate banned users

Now, I don't know how exactly one would want to go about this--perhaps a symbol next to the username, like the Hypermode or New User icons, or maybe a mark on their trainer card, but I find it very strange we have no way to tell which users are banned and which ones aren't. Some websites, such as forums, are very clear in this regard--I've seen sites that even just straight-up change your user avatar to a special "banned" symbol, or give your account a role that says you're banned. But Pokefarm... Isn't. And while we do have a pretty stable community for now, it's better to be safe than sorry and allow transparency for this. Currently, the only way to figure out if a user was account locked is if they straight-up say so... on another site. They can't make an alt--that'll be banned too and probably have its posts or any incriminating info saying "my main account was locked" removed just by proxy of the protocol for dealing with sockpuppets. And if they gave no info on their data on other sites, you're kinda screwed out from ever asking them, ESPECIALLY if they don't use the same username on other sites. Note that I feel as though this mark should be removed if the user is to be account unlocked. Every site I've seen, if a user was formerly banned and is then unbanned, the ban isn't counted against them publically--only the staff would know about their former ban unless the user decided to make that public themselves. Pros: This would allow transparency between the mod team and users besides the incredibly vague trainer IDs shown in the mod activity page--now we know who it was that got banned, and if they were even banned in the first place. In addition, this'd probably be quite easy to code. Just program in a new icon on a username or trainer card to appear on the variable of if an account is locked, and get the art team to design a quick "account locked" symbol--or even just re-use the standard lock symbol from other features on the site, such as the EXP lock! Cons: People might throw hands after finding out a user was account locked this whole time, sparking potential drama (potentially on-site, but for permalocks it's more likely that'd be an off-site issue). However, the bigger con is that this just simply might turn out useless if the community remains stable, and staff who would abuse power are never promoted. In which case this fails on its purpose by proxy of its purpose never being an issue. But hey, better safe than sorry.
