delete ALL content by spammer as a moderator (not admin)

[arbee]

As an admin I can go into AdminCP to locate the spamming member then press the "Delete Content" button to delete all the spam ever posted by this user.  If I log in with ModeratorCP no such function exists.  Is there a way I can let my moderators do it?  While on this topic, I was wondering why it takes so long for the "Delete Content" to take effect.  Last time I tried it took about 15 minutes.

Hmm...

1. Create a new group - example 'Global Moderators'

2. Add this group STAFF - Administrators

3. Define allowed functions of this group (Members-Staff-Administrators-Edit 'Global Moderators' - be careful, they are many.

4. Your request here

5. Add a Secondary Groups for you selected moderators.

6. Go quietly drinking beer, moderators will work happiness.

Thank you so much for replying Adlago!  I am currently running 4.0.12.1 (100043).  Unfortunately I cannot seem to locate the interface section in your screenshot.  I went to my AdminCP > Members > Groups > Create New Group and can't seem to find anything remotely like your screenshot in all four of the tabs there (Group Settings, Content, Social, Downloads).  So I can't "go quietly drinking beer" just yet.  I will keep searching though.

You can also activate the deletion option in your spam prevention settings

I just realized from your post that it ALREADY defaults to HIDING all content by the spammer once they are flagged as such.  I guess it doesn't happen immediately but takes like 15 minutes or something which is why I didn't notice it doing it.  I wonder why it has to be delayed so long to take effect?  Thanks ipsrocks.

Thank you so much Adlago for taking the time to make those screenshots.  I was able to reproduce your instructions.
