Thank you Colin.
Yes, I know about callbacks, I don't care about it in this case. I just want to clean posts and keep not more than the last 25 ones. Thank you for the tip regarding the ordering, I'll take care about that.

I wonder what is the best way to delete all the records of the association on a specified condition.
For example, you have User model that has many Post(s). How would keep all the recent User's Posts and delete all the last Posts when a Users have more than 25 ?

There is a solution like that:

def self.delete_old_posts
    old_posts
= []
    users
= includes(:post)
    users
.each do |user|
      old_posts
=+ user.posts.offset(25) unless user.posts.empty?
   
end


    old_posts
.delete_all
end

Any other ideas ? Thank you.
