Deleted messages from banned/kicked accounts
Sorry if this topic is already posted somewhere and I could not find it, but I would love to see this getting added.
*Adding a feature for administrators to be able to see/read deleted messages from accounts that are banned/kicked from the server.
Many times there can be arguments among players and administrators. Sometimes those administrators ban those players wrongly and so other admins can't see what has been typed by those players and cannot assess the situation.
Not talking about having the option to read messages, that players themselves deleted, but messages that are deleted when someone is banned.

When banning someone using Discord's ban system, there's an option to specify how many messages can be deleted, with an option to not delete any messages. If you want the messages to persist after a ban, make sure to chose "Don't delete any" in the "Delete message history" field.

If you are using a moderation bot to ban members (Such as Dyno or Mee6), there are usually options to not delete any messages (e.g. Dyno syntax to not delete messages is ?ban save <@user> [time] <reason>). If you're a server owner and you want your admins to always keep messages from banned members, you can instruct them to always save messages, or else take a screenshot of the messages and posting them in a staff only channel before banning them.
