destroy! now once again calls destroy

This is because destroy! is called by :dependent => :destroy association definitions (yes, destroy! and not destroy), which means that associated records of a paranoid object would suddenly go missing... making it very hard to restore them!

So instead, it's now called really_destroy! and destroy! is just an alias for destroy once again

You would use either plugin / gem if you wished that when you called `destroy` on an Active Record object that it didn't actually destroy it, but just "hid" the record. Paranoia does this by setting a `deleted_at` field to the current time when you `destroy` a record, and hides it by scoping all queries on your model to only include records which do not have a `deleted_at` field.
If you wish to actually destroy an object you may call destroy! on it or simply call destroy twice on the same object.
If you wish to actually destroy an object you may call `really_destroy!`.
