I used a functionality to delete all posts from a user a few days back. I assumed it was the new one.
In Administer User -> Quick tools -> Delete all posts
It's also possible in that screen to delete the user and all its posts, which may make more sense.

I add also something more, so we will see how it will works. I hope it will remove at least 90% of spam, because it is really horrible. Also I think all of those members who got birthday these days...spambots!

I deleted all inactive accounts, so we shouldn't be getting any of those anymore.

I thought you said it didn't work? So it does work for you guys, right? Can every other Moderator do this? If so, please confirm this please. I did make the changes to the whole group, but just in case.

I hadn't found the proper way to do it. The other day I had some time and started digging around until I figured it out. I was trying to use the normal processes, thinking there were additional options.
