so what would be a good procedure for purging old inactive accounts?

thought about 0 posts, older than 30 days
also no remote followers

and then what, suspend and lock the handle down or completely delete locally so it can be recreated later?

computer fairies currently marks itself as having around 200 users, which is very inaccurate to how many actually active users we have and i'd like to change that

@squirrel i've been considering changing the "active users" flag to count only users who've had activities in the last week

@squirrel er, i said that wrong

to change the "total accounts" into an "active users" measure

@vahnj i'd really like that, but it's also a matter of having defunct data on the system

@squirrel i can't bring myself to throw out old data =3=
