Also: this self-deleted user’s single post (which got deleted too) was 10 months old.

 ![Log entries show a "delete user" and "delete post."](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/2/5/f/25f517fa68270914f160cc6d9c0442bc6b1dd757.gif)

Shouldn’t this user’s self-deletion have been prevented by this setting?:

![Setting "Delete user max post age" is set to 60 days.](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/8/b/e/8bed047a79f6dfcc4efdce85777dcf59f1a48f06.png)
