Delete all posts by user

« on: August 21, 2002, 04:17:47 AM »

How about a mod, which would allow an admin, or global mod if allowed, to delete all the posts on the boards, by a certain user? Could be used if somebody signs up to a board, and proceeds to spam it with a lot of posts. Would save time of going through and deleting each and every single post. Could also be used to delete posts by a member who deletes their profile..

Anybody?

Is it even possible?

This could also cause a lot of mess due to the 'random' removal of messages within topics. Topics might not make sense anymore after one or more of it's messages has been deleted...

hmmm, didn't thought of this.
maybe you just delete topics, which the user has started.
