 A: If many people have write access to the same directories, then they'll probably get failures and stalls a lot, regardless of the frontend, and they might eventually if they keep doing it lose the data, if a bunch of servers get disconnected right when they are doing that. Currently we advise people to adopt a style of usage where each user gets exclusive write-access to one directory, and read-access to the directories of many other users. It is a limitation that we hope to lift in the future.
 
-'''[=#Q32_remove_node Q32:] I have legacy storage nodes in my grid. How can I remove them from grid (and start screen)?'''
-
-A: Actually, all you need is to restart an introducer. It will check existing nodes and add to list only active ones. Hence all your inactive nodes will disappear from the node list.
+'''[=#Q32_remove_storage_server Q32:] I have removed storage servers but their names still appear on the list. How can I remove them from list?'''
+
+A: You can just ignore them — having their names on the list doesn't do any harm. But, if you restart the introducer their names will disappear from the list.
 
 '''[=#Q33_stats_access Q33:] Can I tell how much storage space is offered by storage servers?'''
