Most likely would depend on how you manage your forum some people may choose to have moderators with the privilege of banning users, that seems like an acceptable use case actually unless you plan on having an administrator watching the forum 24X7. As moderators are the ones dealing with the users they are the ones that most likely want to ban them, adding an administrator in the workflow may do things worse.The zero settings will do the trick, but personally, I don't want a moderator banning an established user, that should be up to the administrator(s). Anyway, if someone has more than a few legitimate posts they are not likely to suddenly become a spammer, so I don't see the point in a zero setting that screens all established members' posts as potential spam. Isn't that an unnecessary burden on the system?
That has been raised as a bug/issue and I believe it will be dealt with at some point.except i cannot let mods use the spam cleaner as it insists upon sharing ip addresses despite permission settings.
They can use the Spam Cleaner which is available by clicking on the Spam link on the member card.
