I was reading the telemarketer thread, and came across this [post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=3020346&postcount=143) from someone marked as a “registered user.” Still doesn’t show her post count or location though.

Is this the start of titles updating, or an anomaly?

It means they changed their password or email address and didn’t handle the confirmation email they should have received . . . so the registration is in the security holding queue awaiting further action.

There’s a few of them in there. I’ll look at it and get it cleaned out. Anyone in this situation should be a Guest.
