Delete inactive members

Post by Lixas »

Hi shadmin, i'm suggesting u to delete that pplz, who have registered here, but no posts in 1 month period since registration. Who need that users, free up the nicknames list (joking..) but u could delete them... It's just my opinion...

What's wrong with lurking?
Just because someone doesn't post, doesn't mean they dont read the forums.
If you're not registered you cant "read new posts since last login"
Your suggestion is a bit harsh and unfriendly.

Hi Lixas,
Seems to be quite a reasonable suggestion, but doing so will discourage members from recieving periodical updates that i mail them, which hopefully will remind them that a site named smokyhosts exists and that they are the members and might come back sometime. Infact if you look at the posts, there have been already 2 to 3 members who have come back in this manner, so i am just keeping that possibility open. Either ways having inactive members in the memberslist doesnt bother anybody nor does it harm the forum in any manner, still i shall consider your suggestion if something positive turns from doing so.

I'm not with that suggestion , some members are forced not to log in forums , because of being busy or ill or whatever

and this , as SHADMIN said, will discourage members from registering in forums

the misssion is to increase the number of members , not to decrease it , i think

cheers

well ,Lixas ..... what do you think when a visitor come to register in forums to find members' numer is 20?

the aim of any community is to increase members ......

and what about member's absence due to being busy or ill ?

I'm not with you at this point

then, i can increase (by registering new members and forget them...) this forum member list with useless users, with more than 10 a day :) joking, i dont do that, but i still hold my possition about deletion.

i'm not talking about deletion registered pplz, who have hosting accounts, and who have done more than 1 post after registration... I'm talking about that members, who have registered earlier, and dont have any posts after 1 month past registration...
