Does this happen often?

Wow, that could be a problem


- JohnC - 01-17-2006

Happens all the time. I've been deleting one or two every couple of days. Just ignore them - they aren't ever "activated", so can't post or do anything other than clutter up the member list.

Can't you delete people that haven't ever posted within the year as well?

I've seen that happen on really large boards before. Ars Technica cleared their forums out a couple of years ago - got rid of all accounts that hadn't been active within the last year or so. I don't see us ever having to worry about it. Although I may try to add some better user registration code to cut down on the bots...

yeah... we're like... not nearly as big as ars technica... at 200ish users, our database isn't really even a database Wink
