| Jun 12, 2023 at 19:52 | comment | added | LSpice | Since this question is, as phrased, not really about a specific user, might it not be appropriate to remove the link to their profile? | |

| Jun 12, 2023 at 11:00 | comment | added | David Roberts Mod | @Alex in this case I suggest as little visibility as possible to someone whose main goal is attention. This user is well-known to mods across the network. | |
| Jun 12, 2023 at 8:14 | comment | added | Alex M. | @DavidRoberts: Your first comment answers my question, I guess. What is strange, then, is that a different account of the same person has been terminated, instead of suspended. | |

| Jun 12, 2023 at 1:18 | comment | added | Nike Dattani | This is not really on-topic here. You can ask at Meta Stack Exchange (the mother of all metas), but it has already been asked many, many times, so perhaps search for the duplicate versions of your question before posting anything. This is not a question about MathOverflow, it's a question for the SE network's staff (people that almost never visit the MathOverflow Meta page). | |

| Jun 11, 2023 at 22:25 | comment | added | David Roberts Mod | People can recreate their account after deletion. But a suspension transfers to the new account. It is a violation of the terms of service to try to avoid a suspension by creating what amounts to a wholly new account. | |
