[wp-forums] Escort spam

[Mark Ratledge]

What about a nuke button that deletes all their posts and account? The same userrname search that shows spam will show if they have any legit posts. I know they can easily open a new account, and quickly, but it will show some more seriousness on the forum's part. And block their IP for 24 hours?
