Next weekend I'm going to delete all members with 0 posts.  If you would like to hang onto your username/handle, please post something this week.

Are you going to do it "0 posts AND Last Active < date X"? You could easily make more work for yourself in having to respond to folks who are interested followers but aren't comfortable with posting out in public.

I say this because I received and responded to a PM this morning from a "zero-poster" who's been a member since 2011.

Just a thought, any "zero posters" who don't want their accounts deleted could simply respond to this thread with "Don't delete me."

If that's the case, better put it in the N Scale forum so everyone sees it. :trollface:

Don't Delete Me!!

 :D :trollface:

Seems like a good idea, probably ease the bandwidth as well.
Was curious though, don't users here have to have a minimum post count to see this sub forum? Or is that the Crew Lounge?

The Crew Lounge I know is closed to new members.  I tried logging out, and Administrative is still visible, even to non-members.

I haven't posted before but I do visit every day. I have learnt a lot from this site, if i  thought I had something of interest to offer i would probably post. I dont want to be deleted but if you do so be it.

Interesting . . . you still have zero post count (even after your first post).  :|

The running post count does not include the admin section of the board, so I guess Tom risks cutting off active members who only post to the admin board. ;)   But seriously, I don't think there is any content a zero-post member can see that a non-member can't see, so no one will be blocked from seeing content.  I think Tom is just trying to clean house.

Can we make special requests for account deletions, e.g., @wm3798?   :trollface:
