Member Cleanup

[Darren]

As you could imagine sending emails out to over 4000 members we would be a large amount which bounced back which we certainly did.

You'll notice the member count drop I suspect around 100 - 200 by the time this has all finished. In the process we are cleaning out any inactive members so it could drop even further than that.

Never fear we'll get them back in no time flat

All up so far 166 members got the chop according to my calculations, most who replied requesting removal haven't touched the site in quite sometime nor made a post.

I suspect the reasoning for this, back in the early days Garth and I were allowing members through as long as it didn't bounce. Now it's done a bit different we do our weekly mailout of those who haven't activated their accounts through your standard mail application, if they haven't replied they get the chop the following week and the cycle starts all over again.

As you could imagine it was rather boring but I've now got around 80 pm's to send out as they are regular members.

Don't chop me.

Seriously though, good idea, culling the member list to keep it real.
