Mass delete users?
 
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, just move it if it is please.

Hi,

Over the past month I have had to ban around 200 users because of spamming of 'viagra' etc. Not sure whether these are robots or not.

In their signature, they have links to websites selling a load of crap and instead of going through every one of those users and trying to remove the signature, is it possible mass remove signatures or delete the spammers that are banned?

Thanks,

Just set the permission of yourt banned usergroup to have signatures to no.

They are spammers. You should install the vbStopForumSpam mod to stop it happening.

If you use the built in feature 'delete as spam' to delete spammer's posts you can ban their account at the same time as removing the post and usually banned users sigs don't show.

Ok, I have installed the vbStopForumSpam mod thanks.

Also, Marco the signature permission you said to turn off was already off. They put their signatures while a registered user and once banned, the signature is not removed.

And BirdOPrey, I know that just I want to remove all their signatures or delete the users.

That's weird because when I ban a user their sig is hidden.
