Deleting inactive Accounts on Friend Project

This Will Take Effect February 2013

We will start deleting inactive accounts which have not been logged into for over 3 months. The majority of the accounts being deleted have been inactive for over 6 months. We feel 3 months is enough time for one to keep their account active. Our focus is to give the active members more server resources for a better overall experience. We think that most would agree that it's unfair for resources to be spent on maintaining inactive accounts at the expense of the active members. Incidentally, all of these accounts are already hibernated.

To save resources accounts are hibernated when they have not been logged into for 45 days. Hibernated accounts are temporarily removed from the website. They are automatically reactivated and restored when the owner of the account logs into the website. When an account is not logged into for 3 months the website will delete the account (starting Feb 2013).

We send email alerts to members when their accounts are hibernated. We also send 2 warning emails to members 4 weeks and 2 weeks before their account is deleted, if they have not yet logged into the site. Accounts are only deleted if they have not logged in at least once in 3 months. Our hope is that every member will keep their accounts active by logging into them at least once in 3 months.

Login to your inactive accounts TODAY if you don't want them deleted.
