I am accustomed to websites that clear out inactive members after 1 to 2 years of no activity at the most. This "member" only visited on one day more than 11+ years ago. This "member" is only one of many, many, many more. I'm wondering why we keep inactive members crowding the members page.

Thank you.
I noticed that too but then I also noticed that sometimes these inactive members do find their way back. when they come back they dont have to go through the registration process all over again. they just log in. here in america more and more websites now no longer delete inactive accounts for this reason. for example facebook does not delete inactive accounts a person can go many years with out going into their account then log in and their facebook is still there. they just get a welcome back notice after they log in.
