Well I don't have any further ado with this statement. I agree with the policy, but if ever accounts will be deleted or banned can you please atleast specify what are the violations (if ever there is).. I love this forum and I don't like my account to be banned or be deleted just like what happened on the other forum..

This policy is actually not used rigorously, it was created when some people just signup, add their signature and never come over again.

I left this as part of the policy in place in case an account is deleted for being doorman and you have the owner returning after a year etc.

I will not delete an account till its in active for over a year.

Thumbs up to GKD. Totally agree. I would say it is a little harsh for those of us who are genuine to have our accounts deleted!

I reckon 50 posts would be a reasonable amount of posts to go by.

I agree I think this is the best idea and helps to get rid of the problem with one post wonders!

Also ensures any legit member never gets deleted so they can always come back and ensures that their accounts are preserved as I guess some users would be on regularly but wouldn't post as regularly due to time constraints.

It is quite fine to implement some policies like this. As a member who forget us for more than 3 months, may showing not to come back.
I think there is nothing wrong with this policy.

Sounds like a sensible policy ... please don't consider DP like infractions, don't see the need for them here.

I don't like infraction, I think its a sort of public humiliation, its now my style. I prefer to talk to people via PM.
