Yeah, I too would have nuked them a long time ago.
No, wait, ...

I used to pick on those guys.

I'd advise you to apologize and pray they forget you exist.

I would like it extended also to less credible people, like, for instance, Carlo.

you are already a tr**ga warrior! You definitely are qualified for the Nuke button.

And after each of your nuke: "Veni, vidi, vici".
But I don't think anybody not mentally challenged would give you the keys of the nuke button. We all know you

I think there should be 12 members with this power, can't think of a good group name for the dozen of them at the moment.
But crucially the twelve are randomly chosen from the entire membership each day and they must never know they have the power.
This will prevent anyone from abusing it.

I completely agree with you.
By the way, I've written a novel random number generator algorithm...

possibly something like this[^]?

But only because "Flamethrower" did not make it up to the list.

Beacuse they actually do not have enough weapons. That makes sense.

I am with you, but I'd rather make them a special group, "Gold Protectors" or anything like that.
I also wouldn't recommend to require only one vote - I'd rather go for two or three.
Anyhow, the most powerfull weapon would be to really block the member from posting after his account is gone - The accounts are usually gone pretty quick, since it needs only 5 kicks to new members to be nuked, the posts after the account is deleted are the most troublesome. Another great approach would be to automatically delete all items posted by a member who's account is deleted.

I like the trolls. Don't hate me, but its true. We get some of the best/funniest responses that keep the site entertaining as well as informative. Its important that we block them, but some of their mess needs to filter through for raw entertainment!

Hmmm... Do you remember when Brisingr Aerowing[^] had his account closed the other day?
I suppose if you report yourself, a full purge is appropriate.

I am Not Talking about a permanent deletion - The crap just doesn't Need to be publicy visible After an Account was locked.
Given The Low rate of accidental nukes this Way of dealing with abusive Members should be acceptable.

Ah, ok. Now I see where you are going. I think that would work and could save us all from a lot of cleanup.

And it would improve the site's content's quality, in addition.

Oh! and I thought they are different persons. 
I think that the current report as spam / abuse works just fine. There are only isolated instance of aggressive trolling. And the CP Spartans can always remove the account of a troll. If it gets created multiple times, we can remove it multiple times, it's just few more clicks. I don't think blocking a troll for few hours can make a difference. We need to outcast trolls with complete ignorance to make them stop.
Giving CP Members ability to block IP Address that easily will create more problems than solve a problem.

Someone posted that as a suggestion not too long ago. I guess it's not all that different from the filters you can set up for QA.
