2.03 is better than 2.04
if you delete a user in 2.03 it deletes all the links the user submitted but it does not do so in 2.04
i prefer the way it's been done in 2.03 because when someone abuse the system and submit the same site under different categories. it's easier to just delete the user name rather thatn delete all links submitted

Sometimes you want to delete a user, but not their links. I actually thought 2.04 worked the same as 2.03 in this way, category deletions delete all the links, I thought the same went for users.

Actually, the best option would be to allow the deletion of the user, and a check box "delete links" and a box to enter the Username of the user to set to, default is "admin".

Yeah - Having a checkbox option would be the way to go, and having an option in the config file so you can choose to have it the box checked by default.

Hi,

Deleting a user should delete all links automatically. You can't have a link owned by a user that doesn't exist.

Cheers,

Alex

deleting a user in 2.04 is not deleting links waiting to be validated. i already tried it.

When deleting a user, that users links could be transfered to a new owner ex: admin. This could be chosen with a checkbox.
