Member Pruning: 60 Days, 1 Post

That was a good Idea to drop them. (dead beats)
I don't know why someone would be so stupid to register to a perfect fan club and never post!
oh well.

i support it...if they snooze they looooose.....      i do think they should post at least one to stay on...just to show thier interrest. good work with the boards Aaron, we're thankful for the work ya do...

Well, it will be a motivation to make people become active.

Well it seems a bit silly to have so many inactive accounts. I made a thread to prompt people to post who have never posted before. So far I have one new member who has responded.

I know, we have like....what........400 members and only 90 of us post! And the newest name is MY real name! DINO!

Cecilia, you might be unclear: you just have to post 1 message within the first 60 days, or else it's bumped. At the very least, it encourages an introduction. Non-members can read posts, and we get plenty of guests here.

Clarity helps. Three confusing parts to your post:

If they don't have much to say, fine; if nothing to say, not fine.

If they're "posters," they've posted something and this isn't applicable.

If you really understood the issue, it wouldn't be applicable to you.

Sorry if this isn't clear. It's very basic maintenance to have more-legitimate member counts.

I don't like it when someone posts 1 post and NEVER gets back on again. (The reason my name isn't Darth Revan...Someone used that name, never posted, and has not logged in or posted since, but is still a member. It must have been before you changed the rules.)

I think their should a like 1 post every 60-90 days so people wont sign up and post 1 check for a week or two and forget about the site. Sure the numbers look good but they are fooling. I think thats the best idea because there has 2 be atleast 1 topic every 60-90 days for every 1 to have atleast 1 comment or or can make their own about something they discovered or feel.
Maybe a vote for a new system just so we can weed out a lil more of the 1 posters who havent signed on in like forever.

90 day vacation? and i mean more of the ppl who only have 1 post liek make it for them to have it as more of a newbie thing
Say 1 post every 2-3 months until certain amount of posts are reached but they cant post liek the max in 1 day and never come back type deal. The idea needs some work.

The official answer is right there in the Rules:
