The problem I'm running into with this 1000 user delete limitation is I just noticed that spammers have been registering over 2000 user id's per day for the past couple of months. They have gotten around the captcha apparently (though they have only been spamming the blog area which I just disabled as it's not used, the forums have additional user group limitations that prevented them from posting there, so it went unnoticed).

The only way to clear them out is by searching first for "people who haven't logged in for 100 days" which are my valid users, moving them from registered users to a new group. Then (for example) searching registered users for people who haven't logged in for 60 days, I get no results.
Then going to 59 days, I get 2000 results. I now have to MANUALLY delete 1000 of these checking the boxes one at a time in order to get the total under 1000 for the bulk delete to work. There are no other search parameters that are useful in shrinking the bulk action results list (I tried 59.5 days )

Then I go to 58 days. I get 2000 more. Manually delete 1000 again.
Then 57 days, etc, etc. This is ridiculous and while not impossible, it's going to give me carpal tunnel.
