Deleting inactive members? #1
When you own a forum, do you delete inactive members after some time? The ones that have 0 posts and didn't log in for a few months?

Personally, I don't. I don't think there's a need to do that either unless you're running a massive forum with thousands of active members. If you're running a small forum, removing inactive members just reduces your overall member count which can be one of your most valuable assets when just starting out.

The only problem deleteing inactive users, means you well just see that member area drop.

Don't think there is a need to do this. I don't plan on ever doing it here either.

I send a few email reminders then I erase them, I don't want a site with a bunch of no post

I don't know but let say it's a smaller site and it has 2k post and 600 members, Maybe it's just me it looks bad
