I heard that there's been some problems a litle while ago as far as space and whatnot was concerned. I have a suggestion..
I just read some of the members list and saw that here are a hell of a lot of members that have been here for a few months/a year and have little to no posts. Can't you get rid of them? If they are innactive, whats the point of wasting space on them?
If this sounds stupid, I'm sorry, but I think its a good suggestion. Then again, I did back up Carlos, who decided to quit because things were 'too shitty'..Oh well....

The 'Chat forum' isn't the greatest place to post forum ideas, 'Forum Discussion' would be the better place.
The server problems have been solved, and having more members, active or not makes the board look more apealing somehow.

Oh, Ok. Sorry for the problems. The only reason I was wondering was because when I joined the name I wanted was taken. Well it turns out they have posted 1 time ina year and a half, so I was justthinking that it may allow ne members to have more fun if you take down some of the old inactive members. Thats it, Bye.

Yeah, I basically meant that this theads served its purpose, since all I wanted to do was make that suggestion. Not to fear, I'm not leaving Zelaron in its entirety!! .........

DAMN IT.
One problem with deleting 0 and 1 post accounts is that a lot of people register so they can browse boards using custom settings. So it's always hard to differentiate between the lurkers and the poeple who posted once and will never be around again. It's generally easier to just leave it. =)

Well if they read it so much (with custom settings) they should contribute ;)

Well, there are literally hundreds upon hundreds of inactive members, and ones that have been that way and haven't even checked back in here since the day they registered, but like Adrena said, what looks more appealing to new members:
7,000+ members (Inactive and Active)
or
100 members (All Active)?
I think the choice and reason is obvious. :)
I suggested that a looooooooooooong time ago as well, and this was pretty much the response I got as well. :)
