I personally would not want this only option. Members would wear me and my moderators out restoring their accounts. :eek:

I'm suggesting that there's a choice given for both usergroups. At the moment there's only one Restore Feature option to tick which relates to both groups.

Then users of the mod could go with what works best for them.

Personally I'd like to have it set so that anyone who gets moved for being a lurker has to contact admin to have their account restored. My own opinion is that lurkers are offenders in one sense, whereas inactive might have simply had life get in the way for a while. As I see them differently then I'd like to treat them differently too.

I guess different situations apply to different sites ;)

Then again it's how you use Paul's mod. As he has it now, I created a lurkers group and restricted all permissions except for creating a thread in the forums. I don't allow them to even reply, they half to start a new thread. Once they post they are immediately restored to their original group or wherever you put them. How tight you set your days for lurkers will keep them posting more often if they want to read or post anything in your forums. There are other mods here to stopping them from lurking as a guest also. :)

I agree with you completely that its how you use the mod.

For me, I don't want the lurkers being immediately restored. Some in particular only visit my site now to copy ideas that I've implemented (mods) for their own site. They don't contribute at all anymore, and I genuinely don't see that situation changing any time soon. I also don't think they have the balls to appeal for the re-instatement of their account to its previous status once it gets moved. In the past week alone I've seen 3 new mods that I've added amazingly appear on another site - trust me, its not co-incidence :rolleyes:

Hence my viewing lurkers & inactive as completely different categories. For the moment though, I'll be lumping them in together with the Auto Restore turned off ;)

This mod is exactly what I was looking for!
For lurkers, is there a way to change the required number of posts that have to be made to activate the trigger in the time period. for example 5 instead of just 1?

Assuming you mean the restore ? No, that isnt possible.

instead of moving the user to an other group, can I just delete the inactive users with this mod?

No.

It will be cool if you include this feature in future versions, because I was looking a mod in order to delete inactive users for v4 and there is no mod yet that delete inactive users...

Any help on this?
