"They should really add a character limit to posts to prevent blocks of spam being copy and pasted by vandals/trolls."

While this may seem like a good idea for large blocks of spam, but what about large blocks of content? I already addressed a perception of shallower, less meaningful conversation a handful of comments below so a character limit would cement that idea.

"It would be nice if the deleted comment would disappear all together instead of it being faded with a red line."

I'd personally prefer if Staff maintained the current remove then delete behavior available to the current forum. People who know what they are doing (not the causal viewer) could then still see the removed content without affecting readability while spam posts or those with personal information could be actually deleted in a way where most people, including mods, won't ever see it again.
