I've noticed that the forum has alot of members, some that have NEVER posted and joined back in 2002. I have also been on many forums before, so I can tell which members are ones that actually sign up because they have interest in this place, and which ones are just spammers. We also seem to have quite a few members that ARE spammers themselves.
It's just a suggestion/question, has anyone considered deleting members that are spammers or/and ones that haven't logged on in a VERY long time. I mean, if they haven't logged on in a few months to one year I can understand. But, there are some accounts with ridiculous names that I can SO tell are just spambots, and accounts that signed up like...4 years ago and have NEVER been activated, nor contain ANY information about the user. Some haven't even posted! It's just a question/suggestion, please don't bite my head off. Just wondering.

Spammers=banned
But I do think we need a good o'l clean up.
However, it takes much time, and that's something I might have to do, if others agree.

No one will bite your head off. ;D Trust me. ;D
It's a valid question, and it's been brought up before. We have over 2000 members, and very few who are actually active.
I'd help Comsie if I could, but only admins can delete members. All I can do is ban idjits like Fluffles. ;D

We need that done sooner or later.
Oh Madame Hoagie's Gal is a mod now. YAY.
We'll have to ask the mods to do the clean up. As I said, it has to be done sooner or later. Please clean up the member list, but no pressure if you're busy with real life ^^. Thank you!

Mods can't do the clean up.
Only Admins.

Yep.. Possibly.
Let them be. Once they find out the fourms all passworded, they can't do anything.

Oh, Admins have more power.
We can delete members and stuff, and do more to the fourm. Mods can only ban and stuff like that.
