Yes, thinking about it. We are not likely to do it.

The problem with deleting any account is that all posts from the deleted member get reverted to 'guest'. It really damages the flow and organization of how things developed. If a member only has a few posts, as in the case of a banned spammer, then no big deal. But for anybody who has more than a few posts, deleting an account really makes a mess of things.

If he wants to be banned, he can just stop posting. It accomplishes the same thing.
