If the profile being reported is Platinum or above in 1 category or Gold or above in 2 categories, then the auto-ban should require admin approval. That should be a fairly decent fix to this problem.

Only Silver and above members can report members. Those members that are inadvertently closed can be opened easily.

Don't you have an exception for even site staff? As in if 5 silver members report say you, Smitha or Sean, you'd be auto-removed? [I know it's trivial to bring the profile back, but still allowing that seems weird]

It's trivial to fix if that scenario happens (or, indeed, if it could happen  ).

Is that in invitation to try and disable your account?

Better not think about doing it. The hamsters have nukes.
Signature construction in progress. Sorry for the inconvenience

You're not the 1st person to worry about this. Not sure I am either, but the silver or better requirement was added a short time after I emailed my concerns. I didn't want to post publicly since it might give some of the usual suspects bad ideas if I was right in my suspicions about the lack of protection in place at the time.

I suggested the following in my response to John:

Why is "Show member profile popups?" below the signature box instead of above with the rest of the check boxes?
PS I still say that adding a border visible without hovering over would make it much more obvious that the signature text was editable.

1. No good reason. I'll change this.
2. Let me experiment. I may have some spare borders out in the shed. Fixed in next rev.

I'm quite nimble with a mouse, a keyboard and an address bar.........these are all new accounts.
I got bored while studying my OU course on AI and decided to go spam hunting on CP instead.......

I'm guessing he used the 'Security Guard on the Front Door technique'. Go to Who's Who and select it so that it displays members by there ID in descending order(New members first), this way you can catch them as they come in.

Close.....but pretty much that technique.

Pub quiz last night...Which D is a name for Oil Drilling apparatus? I couldn't think of it, If your name was Derek instead of Dave I might of. 
|
|
|

That could have so easily kicked off an argument up here;
Apparatus would be a Drill (as in bit), Structure would be a Derrick.......
