There was a thread called HotealBeachResorts in the media section so I used my powers to remove it! yay
Not sure how they did it. Didnt you put something in to stop them Shadz?
Anyway, just wanted to inform you guys. This topic isn't really important. I'll delete it later!

Not much point cleaning 800 spam accounts, if the prospect of a new forum/site is a possibility.
Yes, thats right. I have an excuse biatch.

Can admin only delete accounts?

Oh.
No, moderators can aswell. If they couldn't what would be the point of moderators?
Admin deals with things such as account managements and forum structure.

No one is admin right now because of the "shoutbox" that engulfed the forum. If you remember. So basically I have another account that is admin that I can manage to just get to the admin controls, after I managed to fix this up.
You have to go to memberlist, remember the name, and type individually each account you wish to delete. Then it loads, and you go back to the member page. It takes forever just to delete 20; let alone 800.
Its a poor set-up.
