We dont totally remove posts as its a legalilty thing with Moderators.Once "physically" removed you cannot view it as its totally removed from the database. We need this info for investigating users etc.
I realise that its not relevant to the spam lounge (which is full of useless crap) but its a option that has to apply to all posts in the forum.
So as it stands you will have to look at little lines of "dont post spam/dont hijack" etc in the spam lounge.
well, maybe you could designate a moderator for this particular area with the right to hard delete. He couldn't do to much damage in the social area and he does have the option to soft delete particular posts that may be worthy of investigation.

We might make an exception for the lounge because the threads in there get purged every 6 months or so anyways.
Point noted Kristin.....i'll look into it. Gotta have a bit more Caramel pudding first though :)
