@k00b are you aware of this? I kind of hope stuff like this doesn't make Stacker News more expensive for the rest of us...
Deleting users like this is black and white. There is no controversy here.

What was it? I didn't see the post (either my multiple layers of adblocking caught it somewhere, or it's been removed)

If it was spam --- one idea could be to do "task queues" on SN. If any user reports spam (report for e.g. 100 sats, get 80 back if correct), it could go to a task queue that users with high trust score could work on and be rewarded sats for their work.

It was spam. And I just saw the same spam again from another account, probably the same user is back.

Yeah I know it sucks to wonder what got deleted. I have a screenshot but can't figure out how to post pics here.

Agree but it's also a slippery slope. We had some cool little/unknown Lightning projects here that were definitively worth keeping. Or this AllArk account were we don't know if it's a legit small Lightning-Giftcard store or just a scam?
Imo there needs to be an algorithm (maybe based on trust) that determines the cost to post dynamically. Maybe even AI spam detection. But all of this would be a lot a lot of coding work which I don't want to demand from k00b.

I didn't even notice because my ad block caught it.
