We try to prune inactive users from time to time (if we remember to), but the system can't handle a large number of database deletions and usually gives a server error, so it's just little by little. And new spambots register all the time.

I also think it's awesome.
You can sort the memberlist by postcount, it shows that I'm the third. Keja and CX have even more posts.

I knew about CX but not keja because they're a space cowboy. Do you think you keep coming back because you're a mod and you have an obligation? because all 3 global moderators joined in 2007. CX hasn't been on since 2011 and keja since aug 2014

CX left a while back because he just didn't feel like he was enjoying it anymore, and no one really knows where Keja went (I think). ASDFKumquat/Cyan might know, I'll spam her with snapchats of a teapot until I get a response and/or have to sleep

I'd love nothing more than prune every spammer in that database, unfortunately it struggles to delete more than 10-20 at the time, it's vexing. I toyed with the idea to create a script to do it, but I believe I had some issues logging into the ACP.

IIRC he also said that he was using to much time on it?

Can we do an auto-delete system where if a member doesn't make a post in certain amount of time, their account gets deleted? Because the spambots posts don't get through.

It makes it hard for necroed accounts to come back. Like me
