And we could definately use some more people over at the Maximal and Predacon factions.

You dont want them... they are all none forum going part timers at best, and at worst, utterly inactive.

Not quite all of us - just the vast majority

Filtering based on inactivity would be a wonderful addition. Would also reduce the result set and reduce server load. Latency (3 mos, 6 mos) is up to others to decide.

Or it could just be based on how often they played. 1 login 3 months ago is a safe bet for deletion. A hundred logins 3 months ago is a good candidate to let stay a little longer.

And I am pretty sure that some people over at the new factions will go inactive in the near furure as well...

Right now, I disagree, I think pretty much all the BW faction commanders right now are reasonably likly to be on for the long run, if only cuase they were active enough to check the boards and get transfered.

After V2, yeah, there'll be plenty, as with the bots and (to a lesser extent) the cons.

Deletion all-in-all is not necessarily a good thread to walk down; having that data sitting there harms nothing. The reports on the data merely need to reflect who's current and who's not. I know I appreciated that I was away for a year and came back with my account still intact. I may not have started playing again if everything was wiped.

In the end though, this thread is really just a thanks for the new tool. It's extremely useful.
