Ah, ok. That makes more sense :P Just for future reference though, what SMF version are you using? I assume it's 2.0?

I wouldn't make that assumption. The 2.x line is still all "release candidate" with its versions. Not ready for primetime, for my taste. :)

If you look at the bottom of the page you'll see the version we're on! :)

Ah, duh, I probably should have checked more thoroughly (brain fart) :P Anyways, I was going through the mod list for various SMF versions. A lot of good stuff there. But it's well.. a lot :P

Amber:
Does the board by board purge built into SMF not work?  I've never tried to use it on my board.  Or is that what you mean by manual?

It doesn't appear to work when you have many thousands of topics with hundreds of thousands of messages. Nor, even, on a board with a much smaller set than that. It ran out of memory, and looked like it had removed a number of topics, but when I ran "recount forum statistics", all the topics re-appeared. So I had to make a perl script that did the job for me, partly by itemizing the task into a series of smaller queries and delete statements.
