Re: spammer delete: The Nuclear Option
You don’t want to delete users if they pose threats to your community because they can re-register using the same creds if you do so and they will continue to be a nuisance to you and your community forever if such is the case. I’m new to using bp, but have already figured out that to get rid of these suckers, this is what you do the easy way.
Go to your user area in your dashboard – checkmark the user, change role to “blocked user”. Then, from the front end of your site, from your front end admin panel, go to the user and up top in admin options it will give you the options of what to do, mark them as a spammer. It doesn’t delete them, as I said – you don’t want to. But it disables them from everything and prevents them from being a neverending nightmare to your site.
