Delete all of them! And all account names that sound like spammers!

It's been a while since I "LOL'd", so to speak, at something on the Internet.
You win, sir; kudos.

Wouldn't it make more sense to purge lurkers that haven't posted since x time after registration?  Wink

Not quite sure what you mean

It would be a good idea to not remove zero-post-accounts that were recently created. If someone registers an account just before the nuke hits, they will probably be mighty confused when they suddenly get deleted (before even having a chance to post).

That said, I'm all for the purge.

You will destroy over 29 THOUSAND accounts!  You know what that's called?

A fine start.  Evil

This should actually leave all the spammers safe with their mostly in the 1 to 5 postcounts.
But go for it if it's just for the lulz.

It would be funnier if only the spam accounts got to stay.

Out of almost 50,000 "members" it seems there are about 7000 actual members.

I was thinking this might be a bad idea, but what's the point of an account if you're not going to post anything?

I suppose some people just use it to keep track of new posts and stuff. Besides! If any "active lurker" got caught in the explosion, they can just make another account!

I've never understood the lurker mentality.

I vote we stone them to death in the village square. Nuking seems so impersonal.

You'd rather throw stones than detonate a nuclear device?

...What's wrong with you?
