Members Purged

Some of you might have noticed, but the current UID is above 250,000. That means we've passed 250,000 registrations. To lessen the load on the database (and thwart the efforts of skids), I've decided to purge accounts based on a few parameters.

Your account will be deleted if it falls under either of these conditions:

• You have 0 posts and have been registered more than a year.
  
• Your account is unactivated and was registered more than 90 days ago.
  

If your account was deleted, but you would like to continue using the forum - simply register again.


Thanks for understanding.
If you have any questions or concerns, message me or post below.

Reasonable adjustments.

Thank you for the information, Oni!

I agree with the decision. Thanks Oni to keep maintaining this forum.

Thanks Oni. It's nice to have a little spring cleaning.

If skids using Openbullet are the same as Trotsky supporters, I guess.

Would you be able to share a list of all the usernames purged, or would it be a time-consuming job?

The reason I am asking is that I am sure there will now be original/unique usernames available that other members may be keen on changing their usernames to.

Most names should be available currently, as we purged almost 200K inactive accounts. I don't want to incentivize people taking "OG" names or any of that, but even if I did there's too many names to list.

Good idea. Some people sells OG usernames. Make profits out of it which is unethical.
