errmm.. i just noticed that many cB names are taken, and not used at all, and have gone to waste... shouldnt they be deleted from cB if they never come here (0 post people from 2003, so on)

is this the wrong forum?.. pleasse feel free to close this thread if you think its pointless.

..edit

not for my username... for other people. sorry about the confusion...

Yes, then all the member numbers would be altered...


Wait, what about members who decide to come back? I know there are some members who came back and are like "Yea, I haven't actually started posting until ## weeks ago, but I joined 9 months ago." I see that sometimes in the Official Member thread or in the introductions thread.

It's somewhat wrong because how would you feel if you found out that your yahoo email was deleted if you didn't sign on it for 9 months? sweating.gif

that keeps happening to me too. pisses me off to no end

also, i joined a forum that would delete you after you didnt post a certain amount in a certain amount of time, but then it wouldnt let you rejoin either with the same email address or member name (i dont remember which the problem was). it was extremely aggrivating, definitely not a good idea

Um...no. More like 3 weeks. Maybe longer. There are thousands of inactive members on cB.

Anyway, it's not a good idea. If you don't get the username you want, then make up something original.

your member number is the staff and forum's system to ID you.


Hey. How about we just eliminate your usernames and replace them with your member number, like Myspace? How's that sound? =] Then that way we won't have to delete members for weeks and weeks. ;D

Hahahahaha, yea, that's great.

i think it's wrong. you'd be wasting your time, and altering all the member numbers. anyways, what if the people that never posted decided to come back? how do you think they would feel if they found out their account was deleted and someone else took their name? what if YOU found out YOUR account was deleted..? would you like that? no, i don't think you would.

Wow, that'd be a hard thing to do... I mean, it'd take a very long time. And then you'd have to re-do everything if more members join, and none are signing on.

Actually, the member number will probably automatically reset, and the fact that a lot are taken, will just challenge new members to think of more creative original names.

if people find out that they're account was deleted, it's their fault for not being active ..

it's like school work. you get tha work .. but you dont do it for 3 months. you find out you got an F in that class. it's your fault you got an F cause you haven't been doing work. your account got deleted cause you didn't post wink.gif

I agree.
When people sign up I believe that there should be a fair warning that if they do not at least make ten posts in three weeks, their account will be deleted.
And if you don't post at least five times every three to four weeks, you're account will be deleted.
Or something like that..
Dunno, just a thought.
