It would be nice to purge the member list, for sure, however at this point there are way too many usernames to go through it manually and too many factors for a bot to do it. It will have to stay as is.
Just a thought, that would be awkward if someone registered as MrFudged_01 and was instantly permabanned. Not that the chances of that would be high, anyways.

AFAIK the filter is by the post, not by username. I reported a few whenever they changed what they posted. After what felt at most a day they are banned faster than I can unwatch and report the topic.
Anyway we need to remember that now all this spam campaign ended (even if at the end i forgot to ask if the manager of the KNC class action knew of this undirect attack to the credibility of the whole action) so why still talk about that? i remember we locked the other thread where we talked about this fact and the mods activated the nuke bot against those accounts....
