    Resolved [RESOLVED] Purge/Delete old threads?

    Hi,

    I was wondering if an admin or mod can delete the threads on the last two pages here:

    http://www.vbforums.com/search.php?s...4&pp=40&page=5

    Several of the threads in that search were either not started by me or I never replied back to them. I wish to have those threads deleted if possible.

    Thanks,

    Nightwalker

    If the information in the threads is inaccurate or false (including info on who posted it), then it is technically in violation of the AUP and should be deleted.

    Check for yourself! Some of the threads state that I'm the thread start. However, the first post in the threads has me replying to another forum member.

    The problem was caused by a fault in the forum software several years ago.
