Description

what the fuck is going on here? about 40 members of my teams had their accounts deleted yesterday. after asking around a bit we could not find a reason for that, nor a connection between the deleted accounts.

maybe you guys should **clearly** state what actions will cause one's account to be deleted because right now it looks like you just scroll through the user list and randomly ban people just because you dont like their name or the look in the eyes of theior profile pics...

randomly banning people makes the remaining users lose their trust in the platform as such not to speak about the security and safety of the data exchanged there

i know issues like this were just silently deleted in the past maybe because you dont want to admit that you fucked up, but i think the other users should know about what happens behing the scenes too

Research direction

The report names no files, tests, or entry points, so start by identifying which account-deletion or ban system is involved and whether the reported accounts share a reproducible condition. Done would require a documented cause for the deletions and a clearly scoped change or policy response, but the issue does not define one.
