Can that spammer's threads be mass deleted by an admin? I see he's not
registered anymore but those posts can't be left to linger in the forum.

Several accounts though, some still registered. The admins will handle it. It
was an impressive amount of work for a couple of hours. They were motivated.

They were probably running a bot, complete with a "Hello world!" test post near
the start. Seems they were trying to get "revenge" for some site, except they
forgot nobody has heard of them.

You mean like an R2-D2

Like I said, motivated.

It was easy when he was a registered user, one could simply add him to our ignore
list, I did twice for his two username and he disappeared for me. Now that he's
no longer registered, the trick doesn't work anymore.

Man than guy has no life... Sad person.

at the bottom of that page. But you can't add users that are no longer registered
so you can't add this spammer.

Thank you, I did not know that was even there! This solves a lot of issues for
me.
