I was reading another feedback thread on here about adding in a banned user role. Here it is for anyone who hasn't seen it. https://officeoutlaw.com/threads/banned-user-role.3422/
Good to see this added in. But I have a proposal to go alongside this: remove the user's other statuses.
I read the admin's response and get the reasoning behind leaving it on the accounts. But personally I think it should be removed.
At the minimum it creates confusion but I also feel like it's honoring members who were removed from the community after abusing it.
If you guys want to avoid making it look like you're rewriting history I get that. But it's one thing to rightfully demote them and a whole different thing to act like they never had that status to begin with. Do the first one, don't do the second one.
