this was a fantastic vb2 hack and was made with blood, sweat and tears by Amy, she deserves all the credit for doing a fantastic job and then giving me permission to release this. If you install this you should show your gratitude in her direction as without her it wouldn't have been possible.
if you got a big board you can't live without this, it stops the crap from piling up.
anything messes up, i can't take responsibility i'm afraid so back up before you try it.

Features:
1. Emails users after 3 days and reminds them to activate their accounts.
2. Emails users after 5 days and lets them know their account will be deleted if they do not activate.
3. Emails users after 8 days with a final warning.
4. Deletes un-activated members after 10 days.
It still does exactly the same but this time for vb3
oh yeah, it emails you to tell you who was deleted, emailed so you're always informed.
and now like the days of our youth where everything was free and our mum would have dinner on the table for us, you're done.

Why is it a problem? Why would you want to treat new members who don't confirm their email address different than older members who haven't done the same? It doesn't delete any users who have > 0 posts, so anyone who ever participated on the board won't be deleted no matter what.

But if a user gets back on the system without confirming their email, they should also not be removed. As I remember, this hack doesn't check for last activity date > join date. It would be simple to amend...

People who have several thousand posts should not have their accounts deleted simply because they have gone on holiday before they could reactivate their account.
And where in the hack instructions does it say it doesn't delete members with > 0 posts?
If this is the case (and I hope it is since it's a good thing) then it should certainly say so in the instructions.
It does exactly what it says on the tin, excellent i'll be installing this when i get the net back at home (stupid school computers prevents downloads of ANYTHING ) excellent job Amy ^_^.
