Do new members get purged....

If I don't post because we go away on vacation for a week will I get purged? Another forum I belong to deletes members if they have not posted in a set number of days.

No. And, while I understand what you're saying, I wish we did to some extent. I'm not talking about you being gone a few weeks, but look at our member list sometime. There's people on the list that haven't posted in YEARS!!!

Just guessing...................

I think I recall that non-active member's accts. were closed when we had a troll on board. I may be incorrect, but that is my recollection.

All I know is that if you go to the member list, it tells when a person last posted. And some haven't posted for years. The last one I saw was '05, but I didn't look through all the pages of names!

I'm so glad I wasn't purged! *lol* But I can understand why it would be done. I don't plan on being gone so long again!!!

The only accounts that are purged are those that sign up and either never activate their account or never post.
