Visitors & Inactive Members User accounts

[FSHOOK]

Greetings to all Visitors & Guests of Antique Farming,

Due to the proliferation and persistence of Spam Bot automatic sign ups (fake Users)
I have taken some very drastic pruning liberty's to clean out the Member list of inactive Users, If I deleted You by mistake, I apologize, It could have happened.

I look at the member lists in different ways, the control panel will rank information in a given set of search query's. I deleted hundreds
of spam sign ups that never returned after they were successful at getting a user account. I am able to determine the last activity and first activity of a given user when I see they never returned to the forum. A decision is made to "prune" an inactive member.

I am very liberal as to what is considered an inactive user, If the user has ever posted a message they are not removed, If the person has gone to the effort to Email Me, They are never pruned either.

I want People to feel comfortable using this forum to ask questions, share information even loosely related to any farming topic and to just socialize with each other. There are a lot of Us that have never met, That consider each posting Member here part of an extended Family. They are concerned when someone is not heard from in a period of time and will seek out the missing person to make sure they are OK.

If You need help with something let Me know, I will do what I can to assist You. If You were deleted by mistake, sign back up and Email Me
I would love to hear from You. Taking time to get to know someone here is well worth Your time. Believe Me, I have spent a lot of time
getting to know some very interesting Folks I would never had a chance to ever know with out this forum.
