there are so many people on there with no posts but have been registered for ages. Why not delete these and any other profiles that haven't been used in last couple of months?
why? space isnt an issue. they may once day log back in

Point - i'd be well gutted if after 6 months i came back, tried to log in and my profile had been deleted, what about if you were to go away for 6 months and couldnt access the web?
A more practical exercise would be to gain information from users who have logged in for the last 12 months, leave the unused profiles intact, and gain information from the 'live users'?
just a thought?

just because they don't post doesn't mean they haven't been browsing the forums

yes but thats lurking & that naughty!!!  I think up to 8months of no activity & they should be sent an email asking if all is ok & that we notice the account not being used, would they like to remain members or be deleted so to speak & as said already, if they wanna come back it aint hard to join is it!!!

I was virtually inactive for the best part of 6 months ... but I would have been well fucked off if I came back and my account had been deleted!

So ... what exactly does "deleting" or "deactivating" an account mean if you still keep the name & password?

actually yeah - could just have 2 counts on the homepage ...
Registered Members: 2000
Active Members: 400
think this wud be a gud idea.
too difficult to delete profiles as theres always gonna be some1 who gets pissed off when they take an extended leave of absence from here and return to find they've been deleted.

I think on looking it is blatantly obvious of the peeps registered who have never used their account to those that have!!!! & by this it makes it easy to decide where can be deleted!!!
my thoughts exactly but some people seem to think that they may actually return one day and be angry that the account they've never used has been deleted.

they can set up a new account no probs.....most have no posts anyway (chances are they dont even remember there password and user name) 
beat me too it lou!!! Im sure peeps wont be too cross, I mean crikey I had no end of probs with gurn & an account & I just simply opened another, not hard It is after all only a message board & not a vital part of life, that peeps are gonna fret over the fact their account has been closed, knowing how simple it is to join again!!
also, maybe James could add on the terms condituions, that if account is not used for 6 months it will be closed, but you can always re-register!!
