Hi,

Very simple idea - to add a new button in CP (maybe in the same place as modbreak and spam button) - that will automatically ban (or even remove spammer account) & remove all associated topics/posts within one click.

Now I must click on SPAM button - to get user banned, but also I must go and check all his associated posts and topics, because in almost all cases there will be some spam links too. So instead one simple click I spend a few minutes removing rest of his posts.

I’d love to see this too. If I click the ban button (or ban someone via the API) I’d like that:

  • All their posts are removed
  • All their badges are revoked

Sometimes spammers earn badges before they get banned. In fact, I’ve already got 125 banned accounts with badges! I’d like to remove them because they skew any metrics or statistics that I generate.

To that you could also add:

  • Their rank is removed from them

Note: I could delete the user, instead of ban them, but… the problem there is that they still have an account in our SSO database. So they can log back in, create the same community account, and post some more. If I use the ban option, they can’t do that.

Would also love to see this happen. Just had to manually delete a ton of spam posts from a single user. Would have been great to have an option pop up to “remove all posts/comments by this user” when you first flag a post of theirs as spam. Any ideas if something like this is on the way ​@Julian ?
