Mass Delete Spammers Based on IP

Hello

I found that there are thousands of unwanted posts / spammers members and they all have the same IP address

How do i mass delete members/post based on an IP address?

through the SQL query , I was able to get the userid , username through this line

Code:

select userid,username from post where ipaddress='x.x.x.x';

Remember to ALWAYS backup database before working on them!

Code:

DELETE FROM `post` WHERE `ipaddress=`'x.x.x.x';

thanks for the quick reply to me

Actually I did it before
by created a file file.txt contains the below records

Code:

delete from post where userid=991;

delete from post where userid=992;

delete from post where userid=993;

delete from post where userid=994;

delete from subscribethread where userid=991;

delete from subscribethread where userid=992;

delete from subscribethread where userid=993;

delete from subscribethread where userid=994;

delete from thread where postusername ='XXA';

delete from thread where postusername ='XXB';

delete from thread where postusername ='XXC';

and run it

Code:

[root@vmi5 ~]# mysql vbdb < file.txt

is working , but I facing issue that i'm getting empty posts for the rest of the members.

I want a complete and correct way to completely delete the user from all fields,
