1187714 2011-03-20 07:42:00 The server itself won't go faster, MySQL speeds might increase a bit (temporarily) since a few entries were removed. The Error Guy (14052)
1187715 2011-03-20 07:47:00 Metla's posts are often to be taken with a few bags of salt (screw a pinch), when you do, they become quite frequently very amusing indeed.

In any case, forums often implement some sort of inactivity rule, I would agree that 0-3 posts (and no login for 2 months maybe) should be cleaned.
Keeps things tidy and all that.

On other forums I've found it makes browsing the memberlists a right PITA. I wanted to find someone with a - in their name, I had to browse 7 pages or so of people with -, --, --- before their name before I found the guy I was looking for. Most of the ones I went through were either throwaways or inactives.
eugh.
