Isn't it about time the database get purged of all the non-posters or one-time and long since posted members (up to say maybe no more than 3 posts)?

The database is probably suffering because of the numbers.

It would make sense to wipe out everyone who has never posted and who signed up 6 months or longer ago. And then wipe out everyone who posted maybe up to 3 posts and then hasn't posted in the last year.

You could probably weed out a ton of dead weight that is doing nothing but clogging up the database. Might make performance of the forum better and make user based searches work better too.

We have a dedicated server just for the database of the forums. The database is not what makes the site slow (if you can even call it slow). The slow point of the site is mostly on the user's side downloading the graphics.

I don't mean that the site is slow but all that dead weight is going to effect response somewhere. Its just dead weight, why keep it around?

And on top of that, it would help for the user who logs on 2 years ago, makes 1 posts, never returns but then decides to come back in 2 weeks but has no idea what his password was. If the account was purged, he can just sign back up with all new settings and email info.

Most companies purge their databases of old unneeded data over time.

I agree. If a user hasn't posted in over a year, he probably won't remember his password let alone his username. Plus, it's just better having a clean database and doesn't make Nico seem so over inflated with non-posters.

Good luck. I had a fusion on my lowerback last year at my L4-L5 and all went well. They used BMP (Bone Morphogenic Protein). Cut my recovery time down by 12 months and increeses the succes rate due to very low rejection rates.
