I would like to be able to single-handedly delete the really gnarly questions that come by the 10K tools. Questions that are pure unredeemable noise. E.g., http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3288720/can-no-one-answer-this-question-o-closedhttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/3288720/can-no-one-answer-this-question-o-closed.

Another thing is that questions have something like a 2 day minimum before they can be killed. Not all questions deserve this honor.

One actionable suggestion I have is this:

  • If a question has a vote of <= -5, 10K users can immediately delete it.

In respect to problem users, I would suggest this actionable suggestion:

  • if the average of the last Q questions is under some negative number N the user has an automatic Y-day suspension. Perhaps (7, -4, 14) for the parameters.

The reasoning here is that Bad Users are Bad. They aren't going to Be Good and Ask Good Questions(If they asked good questions, they wouldn't be bad).

I am a fairly prolific question-asker (in relation to my answering), and it doesn't look like I have a single negative question(at the moment... looks around for vengeful meta users).
