that does not work in this case if the posts were attributed to a new user.

too bad about the new user attribution - lesson learned by the OP, hopefully.

That was a lesson to learn for me, not so much for the OP in this case. As that is what I suggested on the first page of this topic.

Owdy,

It works in cases where the topics are not reattributed. I confirmed that it worked...
it deleted all posts by the user and topics started by the user.

We also are aware that it does not work if the starting post in a topic has been reattributed to a user different from the original author. In this case, it will not delete topics which are supposed to be attributed to the user.

ban the spammer first, then go to the spammer's profile, click on 'actions' then 'delete this account', select 'topics and posts' from the remove posts option, DO NOT CHECK OFF 'delete this members account', then click the 'delete' button.
