There's no built in way to do that. And since we are talking, have you figured out how to fix your earlier copyright issues?

Good to hear, good to see.
Though, still there isn't a simple way to mass delete posts like you are asking for.
I'm unsure if this would even work by deleting all the members from the admin member list,
or if that would just leave all the posts behind, since I don't remember it having options.

It would leave the posts behind.
Mass deleting users does not delete posts

Please do not PM, IM or Email me with support questions.  You will get better and faster responses in the support boards.  Thank you.

is there no sql code i can use to delete the post of the membergroup

i dont think it would be too easy as the membergroup is not stored anywhere near where the users posts are. also without a good bit of clean up afterwards can leave problems behind.

Point of note, the OP has a habit of putting the copyright back, getting support, then removing the copyright again. I've caught him doing that at least twice.
