(Whiteboard: u=contributor c=questions p=2 s=2014.19)

Since many of the spammers we see at the site routinely open numerous questions and/or replies, it would be of benefit if there is a "one-click" solution for moderators on a user's profile to deactivate the account and mark all produced content as spam at the same time.
Thanks for filing this! I've been meaning to file this bug for a long time but as "deactivate user and delete all posts". But now we have the mark as spam feature so we need those spam posts to train our spam detector. :)

This sounds good to me. Since we are not deleting the content this would be reversible and and probably low risk. I'm assuming that moderators and admins would have this privilege. Madalina, are you okay with this?

Right now, the "mark as spam" feature doesn't include discussion forum and kbforum posts. See Bug 1074229 - Add a way to manually mark discussion forum posts as spam
Sounds good to me, let's go for it. Moderators only, of course.

We'll try to get to this ASAP, but this quarter doesn't have much 25% time. We might need to sacrifice some time from the forum 2.0 project if we think this is important enough.

Do we want to always mark a user's content as spam when we deactivate them? Or is there a use case for deactivating users and leaving their content as is? I think this is 2pts. We need to get all the user's questions and answers and set the is_spam flag.
