Lep, isn't there a way to establish dead, or inactive participants?

i mean really, when you have members like THIS bloating the member list to over 400, its sad.

i realize, there are members who never post, and never seem active, but visit often anyways... i am not counting those, but dead memberships.. there should be a way to single them out.. and dispose of them.

any clues?

WOW if it were that simple, why did i wait so long to ask

be careful, i have seen people here who have no marks yet.. uhh i am unsure how you get your first one..

for what its worth, to a point i agree with you SC, but on the other hand, i look at it as good site maintenance.. when a new person arrives, the first thing they do is rate the site on its style, and such, but part of it is its updates and activity.

if i were to join today, and saw 50% of the membership list as "0" across the charts, i would think "this loser, he has to keep all these people on, just to look bigger than he is"

snarkpit is not in dire straights enuff to warrant tactics to keep people coming.

hope that made sense..

that sounds like a good idea to me too.
