Has anyone else noticed that when a profile is closed down, verifications etc all disappear...HOWEVER, forum posts don't?

OK, so there is a note of "no longer uses this site" instead of a profile name, but there's a danger with that. Someone out to "troll" can easily create a profile, make a "personal attack" an individual and close the profile down all in the matter of a few seconds. No-one will know who put the post up, but the words contained in it and the harm caused, stay there forever.

Wouldn't it make more sense to remove forum posts entirely when someone closes their profile to stop this from happening?

the 7 days before you can post gets rid of some of this. the people who come back with a grudge are easy to spot and quite fun to try and guess who they were

If there are nasty and abusive posts on here they usually get reported and can be dealt with regardless of the user being here or not

Like View said the 7 days before you can post helps stop this
