So there are many accounts on this website but most are never ever used anymore. They probably use them for the main purpose of the website but most accounts look inactive. So what are we going to do with them. Just wanna know that is all

pokemaster doesn't do anything with old or inactive accounts. he seldom deletes accounts, but will rarely demote old, inactive staff members. Just like any other average website, any inactive user shall remain for eternity
pokemaster used to track their IPs, go to their houses, wrangle them all up in a horse trailer and put them in a giant meat grinder, as he assumed they weren't sentient, but gas got too expensive, so selling the meat at the farmer's market stopped paying for the whole ordeal. stuff was cheap, too. i miss it.
HT that is hilarious now tell the truth……… wait that is the truth?!
I agree. I think it would be good if users who were older than a certain threshold and had not made any posts at all were automatically deleted, just to keep things tidier and free up usernames. I also think it would be good if banned users said "banned" on them or got deleted.

Edit: mods should be able to moderate accounts. I should think they've proven themselves to be trustworthy, pokemaster.
First they came from the inactive accounts and I did not speak out, because I was not an inactive account
I wouldn’t be opposed to 10+ year old accounts that haven’t logged in or made any posts being deleted, but I don’t think that’s anything Pokemaster will be willing to do.

We just leave them there. Does anything need to be done with them?

Eh ok. Remember a post saying pokemaster just kicks inactive users but he never online lol. (Might be forgetting of password)
I think he did say he removes privileges from inactive editors and moderators, but leaving the accounts there shouldn't harm anyone.
