autoreap button for locked accounts

[Anonymous Monk]

kjlojkipfd9sa0 account got locked, it was spammer, 18 nodes ... and they each had to be considered manually?

and consideration auto reap doesn't kick-in-immediately

janitors or accountlockers need a big shiny button to reap all nodes of locked account

just a thought

The need for the button is growing

I don't see how the need for such a button is growing.

Maybe your perception of such a need is growing. Such a button would only be helpful if there was somebody locking such a spamming account, but there is nobody doing that.

Also, accounts get locked not only for spamming, and auto-reaping all posts by one account strikes me as bad if the locked account was not locked for spamming.

But to console your ailing mind, we are working on automatic locking and discarding posts based on user behaviour. I just don't see the urge, as the problem can still be dealt with manually quite well.

That's why it would be a button, which you would press only if the account was a spammer.

Just a few minutes ago in the Chatterbox

davies: There are seven "considered" spams. If you haven't voted for reaping, I think you're both of an appropriate level.

Don't you wish you had a single button you could push to do this reaping, instead of making seven considerations ...?

Maybe you are projecting your wishes onto others. Having such an autoreap button would not change anything for me, as I don't use my godly credentials from any other machine than my home machine. And had I been at home, I would have locked the account likely before it had spewed more than two or three posts.
