Britec Tech Support Forum

While I know this is going to be very controversial, I think that in cases extreme such as this forum which has a veeeery high amount of sleeper spammers I think this isn't a bad idea.

What do you guys think of deleting accounts with 0 posts that haven't logged in for at least 6 months?

Good idea...

There is an issue there though when it comes to page rankings and seo. The more traffic coming to a site the better regardless of spam, it's just seen as traffic which is a page boost to a site.

If you were to remove all with 0 posts from waaaayy back you would have little left to be indexed.
