This was added a few years ago as a quick way of removing offending material (such as pornography). We had a number of cases where someone signed up and posted a load of offensive images in different threads and rather than a moderator having to go through and manually remove each one, the ban system was set so that a permaban would just hide all posts from that user.

I agree that this feature isn't really necessary anymore and this is something we can remove when we update the site.

Thanks!
