    A favorite hobby of mine back in the day (i.e. before June) was to look up the post history of a poster with a randomized username which was recently created and reply “Welcome to Reddit! How has your first week/days/hours here been?” For some reason, simply noticing they had a new account was enough to get them to delete it.

        Some do that, but I was curious enough to open a few of those in a separate browser that is not logged in, and they still show up as deleted

      Oh, that’s neat haha. Little bit evil maybe, unless they were spammers though ;)
