There is one (left of "reply with quote" when you hover over a post), but it doesn't work, apparently. See earlier in this thread: https://forums.modx.com/thread/90159/help-combat-forum-spammers?page=5#dis-post-500821

My sister makes $4,623 a week working from home... no wait wrong forum.

I don't know whether these posts are being done manually or by a bot, but if it's a bot maybe something like this build into Discuss:

There is a large list of spamming topics, users are banned but topics and post are still there?

In my panic to try and stop the spammers I deleted 9 spammer accounts that has orphaned the posts and they cannot be removed. I need someone to build a query to remove the orphaned posts. There should only be posts from these 9 accounts at this time. I manually removed more than 400 posts using the Discuss 3PC in the manager.
