i kinda feel since some of these people are never on here, or never were, that they should be removed.

Good idea?

[hermitmaster]

I agree, but I don't think anyone has the time to spend doing it.

Mods/admin:
If interested I could do it for you. I have a lot of phpbb and mysql experience.

[zurno]

there could be a few people that just lurk in there too

[hermitmaster]

Most of them are spam bots. It's pretty easy to distinguish real people from bots when you start digging into it though.

Not too sure about that. That Pappy guy sure smells like a spambot. Might be for all I know, never met the guy/group of weird looking numbers.

Huh?

[Monkey-Gein]

^^ exactly. i suppose it's not as easy as click boom

but i do agree, if it was an option and someone wanted to do it i'd vote yes

[Stilz]

Well its not a quick job. Obviously. Phpbb is a bear with it comes to stuff like that. But I have offered to assist, but no one ever responds. they all hate me.

Why should they be removed? afaik we don't have an issue with spam and if we did, it'd be more immediate than the dormant accounts

[Steve@Tasca]

We had a brief run of spam about a year ago or so when we were hit with a couple hundred spam accounts over the course of like one day and between all of us mods and admin we clamped down on them pretty quickly and Trahma found the loophole in the regsitration and shut it down.

The accounts are all inactive because we banned and IP blocked them. They can't hurt anything any longer.

[hermitmaster]

It's easy enough to remove them. It would be nice if the member list was actually, ya' know, members.

[Steve@Tasca]

Is there a way to do it as a mass deletion though, It's easy enough to do one at a time but it'd take forever that way.

[hermitmaster]

It's not really easy to do it all at once without losing real members. There are only a total of 585 members anyway. No big deal to do.

Thats kinda of what i was getting it. I don't think there is.
