Yes, it's all my doing. For those who are not aware, if you have not logged on to the forum in 2 months, I will delete your account. It helps to keep the member lists cleared up. And IMO, if someone has not enough interest in even logging in(I don't care if you post) for 2 long months, you ARE inactive. And your account WILL be deleted. I'll keep that in mind! Thanks for letting us know!  |

I'm sorry. Haven't logged on much. I'm more comfortable in the Facebook universe.

Wow! Just did it again. From 653 down to 328! Of those approximately 97% had 10 posts or fewer and hadn't logged on since October 1st or before. Of that 97% approximately 80% hadn't bothered logging back in after activating their accounts! About 10 messages were sent to members with either over a couple hundred posts, or those who've been on pretty much since the beginning.
And THAT is why I go through and clean the membership list up every 3-4 months. If I didn't, we'd have in excess of 3000-4000 members by now. The vast majority dead weight. When I check out a new forum, I don't just look at recent postings, I also take a look at the member list for how active THEY have been.

654 pared down to 375 people who at least log in once every couple of months,  Again, the majority of accounts deleted are those who never even bothered logging back in after account was approved and activated  |

I guess I need to go update my profile.
