@Rohith There were too many users spammers is created like every new user every 5 min so its 100s of users got created and thousands of junk blogs, so i was looking for how to delete all blogs? also i turned off new registrations now ... there is a captcha to answer and photo to upload as mandatory still i dont know how they can automate and create so much of spam users and junk blogs, any idea?
