SSD, have you ever did a cleanup on the member list? Let's say search for members with Zero posts for the year 2003 and delete them?
Any house cleaning in there? Or this a bad suggestion by me.

Is that a good Idea to do that ? Why do you even have to do it ?

SSD is a community, and they wanted their member count to reflect the number of members who have contributed to the community.

Actually i do remember there was a lot of more members here. Just that i don't check back here to often. The total member count means nothing if over 2 or 3 thousand members haven't logged in over 2 years. It's good to have a clean up every year or 2 years. Coolie is Right though.

I talked to Ollie about it the other day. He told me that he wouldn't do it again, or at least not for a while.

Yeah we won't be doing it again, the only reason we did it before was to see if we could mass email, we couldn't still. However, with v4 we can. Too time consuming.

What Ollie tried to say is that he cannot mass mail the members because SSD has too many members. I don't think you got his point. |
