Title: Delete all threads that have less than 2 words

This will be very useful when you have hundreds of spam threads by many users.

if nobody wants to make this mod, is it safe deleting messages from phpmyadmin in the "smf_messages" table?

why don't you just prevent spammers from registering in the first place?

Yes, as long as you know what you're doing.

and to be clear... you can't just delete the row from the smf_messages table. there are other, interconnected tables
