I think Golfdope might have a thing that auto-drops accounts that sit unused for too long. Chucker would know.

Not sure. I know there's something similar related to threads. If a thread remains idle for 30 days (or whatever you set it to), it can be set to that no one can post anything new to it. Do you think we need to expire idle users here? |

Do you think we need to expire idle users here? I'd say no. Has a cliqueish feel to it that we don't need here. There were quite a few members on FIGs who only dropped in a couple of times a year. Just think if Lars was expired. Wouldn't that be sad?  Maybe after two years or so. Or maybe after a few months if they've never posted. |

I find myself agreeing with Whiskey again. Scary, I know.
I don't think we need to expire anyone.

I agree. I was thinking more, if people signed up out of curiosity, typically in one of the FGI blow ups, but then never end up posting here. Say if no posts after a 6 month period, drop the name from the registry. ps. PM received. I gotta figure out what days I can swing. |

Can you base it on last login rather than last post? That way lurkers don't get deleted.

I'm leaning toward no expiration. Mainly because it would take some effort to code this, but also because it doesn't really bother me if someone signs up but doesn't post until months later. They're still welcome here.

I don't have an auto-expire feature. I always have to delete a spam-bots or two everyday when I get home from work, but I do that by hand. Oh, and I think I would be against an auto-expire feature. I'm all about preserving history. I haven't "banned" anyone yet. Aske, I think I know which user you are based on email address, and it looks like you never finished the account activation. PM me. |
