Oh wait I misread this. I think you might want the “flag user profile” feature.

It is not a bad idea as there are a fair number of human spammers who sign up and edit a lot of spam into their user profile _including_ avatar (will be a company logo of some company they are spamming for) and background image.

This does not ultimately matter since

- we never link anything from a new user profile (links are there, but won’t work)
- we don’t even show the About Me field on a new user profile

But it is very annoying.
