Suggestion: Remove the likes once a member is banned

I see mods are knocking off some spam networks, but the fake likes they give to boost their Main account sales threads remain.

There are BSTs where the majority of users who have liked it have been banned, like 90% of them, so reporting those threads further would cause unnecessary mod-side fatigue... at the same time, auto-removing the likes means the spam networks would lose another leg to stand on, because right now they operate with an understanding that even if the throwaway account gets burned, the sales thread boost remains in place.

So need to take that away from them. Hopefully this can be done automatically.

Anyway, let me know what you think.

Thanks!

yes this would also stop the sour crowd that sometimes mod abuse and call themselves inappropriate names, and like posts, leaving a footprint, before they know they'll get banned again.

Yup makes sense to me.

Don't want social proof working in their favour even once their alts are banned.

We have a member of the team working on this so you should see likes being removed from more and more spam farms and accounts. However, if you see any that we've missed then by all means report it and we'll get on it.
