When do we delete something outright, and when do we move it to the DD?

I normally just move things to the DD, having deleted any links or nasties, but today I've just deleted two threads that were nothing more than porn links. Is the soft copy thing that gets left problematic? Is it better just to move things to the DD? Does that create too much work for Mal?

I think it's okay to just delete the pawn stuff, and move the stuff that's only suspicious website pimping. It doesn't make much difference to me either way though, I always add their email and IP to the ban list anyway, then delete their account.

Although, having said the above, if you do move threads to the DD they are no longer visible from the front page thread list.

Right, I'll just do that in future, then.

Ironic, isn't it, that one of the posts bumped in this particular spam spree was this one?
