Is there a way I can delete all discussions that have been made? Like wiping the history. From all accounts in the history of the site. This is because I want to reduce clog up and the way my site works. Posts aren't useful after a certain amount of time.

You can use the archive feature to archive discussions after a certain date.

Check out http://forum.example.com/vanilla/settings/advanced for the settings.

You can also truncate the discussion and comment table via mysql if you truly want to delete your data. If you do that, be sure to run http://forum.example.com/dba/counts to correct the counts meta data.
