I have a client who has ignored her blog for over a year and has accumulated over 1100 comments, mostly all of which are spam. Is it safe to simply empty the wp_comments table and thereby dump them all? Should I optimize the database after doing that and make sure no errors are reported? I am using the WP-DBManager plugin which allows you to do these things w/o going into PHPMyAdmin.
Thanks

Oh, I found the Delete Pending Comments plugin which should do what I want. Thanks anyway.

Another plugin that was very useful in this case was Auto-Close Comments, Pingbacks and Trackbacks which allowed me to turn off every kind of discussion options on the site's content simultaneously.
