I am not saying there are no situations where deletion a large number of forum members is not waranted. However, in most cases I do not see a neeed for such a feature. Especially since my fear is that it would lead to accidental deletions that are completely unrecoverable.

At the moment you have 2 ways to handle the situations:
1) Delete members 1 by one
2) Connect to the database used by the forum and mark all of the accounts you want to remove as 'un-confirmed' and the forum will delete them automatically within a few days.
To do this you need run a query that looks something like this:
UPDATE fud21_users SET email_conf='N' WHERE login IN('login1', 'login2', ...);
