Hi there. I have certain doubts about using the Delete Spammer feature, I have tried it for the 1st time in a discourse community. It does delete the post but does it block the IP of the spammer? If the user somehow manages to log in from a cached session, their account gets suspended? These are the…

It depends. In the queue when you press Delete Spammer there will be a choice to just delete and another to delete on block the IP

At the time you delete a user, you are also given the opportunity to block their IP and email address.

So that means it doesn’t block the IP address of the spammer by default :thinking: Can’t really understand your wordings…

oh ok, weird why the queue didn’t show up…

It doesent always show it. It only appears when a user can be deleted and the flag type is spam, inappropriate, and some system flags

Es kommt darauf an. In der Warteschlange, wenn Sie auf Spammer löschen klicken, gibt es eine Option zum einfachen Löschen und eine weitere zum Löschen und Sperren der IP-Adresse.
