Remove the Ability to View the "Following" and "Followers" Pages of Deleted Accounts

Recently I found a deleted account with a very inappropriate profile picture, and I think the ability to view the “Following” and “Followers” pages of deleted accounts should be removed.

Support, I did too. I feel like if an account is deleted for being nsfw, the pfp should be automatically deleted.

Yessir. I agree with the fact that this would make Scratch safer!

Support. Having the following and followers pages still on would defeat the purpose of deleting accounts with inappropriate usernames or profile pictures.

What if, instead, when one's profile picture is inappropriate, it's just removed like it should be? I don't see how profile pictures and the following/followers pages are related. Could you please clarify?

Anyway, support. Why delete accounts in the first place for having an inappropriate profile pic/username, when you can just use this workaround (like Quantum-Cat said)?

So… taking away our ability to view the following and followers pages of deleted accounts…. will defeat the benefit of chatting with users… Am I hearing you right?

you can't even chat with them if their account is deleted in the first place because they can't access their account

had to fix some spelling, punctuation, and capitilaztion

Anyways, why would you want to chat with a person who has been excluded off of scratch for infringing guidelines? It really doesn't make sense… either way you can't chat with them because their account is deleted already

i think he thought it was about removing the ability to view following and followers pages, not that but only for accounts that were deleted.

You can't chat with banned users.

What? Please read the OP carefully before posting. My suggestion is to removing the ability to view the “Following” and “Followers” pages of deleted accounts, and I don't see what those pages have to do with chatting.

im seeing a lot of supports here, but i guess i'll place my opinion here too.

the scratch team has the ability to overwrite/remove a user's profile picture. they probably should do this, otherwise the banned user's inappropriate picture will stay on the site in many places (eg. studio curator tab or non deleted comments)

the following/follower pages are just one example of this, and honestly it's a pretty useful tool to know if someone has been banned/deleted vs. never existed. i don't think there's anything harmful on these pages, apart from a banned user's profile picture.

(note that these pages don't show banned users, they only show the one banned user for the page you choose)

and if you get to a follower/following page, you've gotten there on purpose or clicked a link someone posted. maybe report the comment so that it doesn't spread.

since there's so many other places that you can see a banned/deleted user's profile picture i don't think the one following/follower page is a big deal. especially since it's not linked anywhere and the scratch team can easily remove the picture.

instead, i think a better solution would be to remove banned/deleted user's profile pictures entirely when it's inappropriate.

this could be done manually, or the scratch team could get a new checkbox on the ban page to do it for them.
