Can we drop everyone who's, say, 3 posts or less who hasn't joined in the last week or two? Basicly clear out the "useless" members?

I was just going through the user lists, and I happen to noticed about 2/5 the list on the first page alone was people with 3 or less posts, who haven't joined in the last two weeks, and I thought it might be good to drop them, since it doesn't look like many of them will be posting again anytime soon...

Just a thought...

i agree. it would be somewhat time consuming though....

PurpleSmurf · « **Reply #2 on:** 2002-01-04 21:36:00 »

get some grunts off the board to help out. *cough*i'magrunt*cough*

Wouldn't be at all time consuming for anyone with access to the database; a simple SQL query would do it...

I agree a lot. But, old members.....hmmmmmm...

Aaron, halkun, cadberry......

Darkness · « **Reply #5 on:** 2002-01-04 22:57:00 »

old members with 3 posts or less. what ever happened to halkun?

Joey · « **Reply #6 on:** 2002-01-04 23:13:00 »

Hehe, but making a small query error could end up with something disasterous

Just j/k I'll do it after my exam and after Qhimm gives the ok.

Why don't we e-mail them and tell them to come back?
Cadberry used to hang out here a lot. I

Yeah, email everyone on the board(not 12 times though!) and tell them all the old unposting members will be cleared out and to log back in if they want to keep their accounts.

Ant · « **Reply #13 on:** 2002-01-06 20:35:00 »

What's the point of removing people's accounts?
Why bother to remove people, they may just like browsing and only post when they have something to ask? I see no harm in that, certainly less annoying than those Obsessive Compulsive posters.

M0T · « **Reply #14 on:** 2002-01-06 21:25:00 »

Well it takes up Qhimm's webspace to have all those unused accounts, and who would you say to be an obsessive compulsive poster ( I feel like I may be walking into a trap with that question)

Darkness · « **Reply #15 on:** 2002-01-06 21:29:00 »

he was obviously refering to joey, ps, and i. (when did i turn to the dark side and get on that list?)

MMiller8 · « **Reply #16 on:** 2002-01-06 22:00:00 »

I don't get why we would do this. It's not as if the names take up valuable webspace, and the people may come back. It's not hurting anything for them to be on there, is it? If it is, then, by all means, remove them.

PurpleSmurf · « **Reply #17 on:** 2002-01-06 22:10:00 »

no miller it's just that the ammount of inactive people is greater than the active people. and if we could get rid of all of thoes inactive people we might only have 2 pages of users and the forums wouldn't mess up with the numbers as i'm thinking.

Darkness will slow down eventually, its just how quick he started at and the momentum just keeps him going

Back from the dead finally....
Never posted since November 2000 lol I just checked.... jeez!
Just some brief Introduction again.... I'm from Malaysia, Penang.
But I moved to United Kingdom last year (July 2001) for A-Level studies. (I skipped Form 4 mid-way through, no SPM!)
Been really busy last year...... still have to adapt with British weather hehe.... winter's really bad...... I don't really like it IMO hehe I prefer autumn.... not too cold, not too hot.
Anyway glad to see Qhimm's improving time by time....... nice work... I will post here more often..... unless you're considering that I'm spamming

Anyway, I'll post more later...... school tomorrow hehehe.......

M0T · « **Reply #24 on:** 2002-01-08 12:45:00 »

Well its not particuly hot in summer, only about 30 degrees average this year was a bit odd though it got really hot a some points then cold again the next day. WInter is annoying though, far to cold for me. But its nice to have you back.
