Various question about cleaning up an imported vbulletin

Thanks for the clarification!

Honestly, I don’t know. I don’t know what Discourse uses to detect and prevent spam.

Also I believe a fair number of my spammers posted messages on public users’ profiles, a feature that doesn’t exist on Discourse.
These messages were imported on Discourse as “regular” topics, with no category and no title, making them easy to identify.:


Example of a spam profile:

I don’t want to delete all these titleless messages, most being harmless and potentially containing information that some users would like to get back

What I’d like to do is delete users that posted only titleless topics and remove the user’s topics too.
Could such a thing be done fairly easily with rails commands?
