Suggestions and Bugs - Auto-Delete?

having some sort of an auto-delete system for dead topics and users that never get on seems like it would speed up the site substantially

Actually the site isn't slow because of Club540 - it's slow because of TT and Dragonforce.com. They get insane traffic and my shit is like 5 years old. I have a substantial server upgrade planned for sometime in April when I have a break in my client load. I just have a feeling shit is gonna hit the fan since my server's IP will be changing. After the upgrade this site should run ace.

--S--

Sort of unrelated: I think that all the information should be mandatory when creating an account. What's the point of having an account if no one else can even see your profile?

Furthermore, I think that if an account goes unused by the owner for some predetermined amount of time(maybe 2 months), it should get deleted. You can't deny that it would speed up the site a little bit if we didn't have all the "dead" accounts clogging up the system.

Any thoughts?

i just dont see the point in ancient threads. No one reads them anyway, its always only the most up-to-date conversations that people pay attention to.  That is, not saying there is actual good information in a thread, i.e. guides, work-outs, etc. So maybe just in the general discussion thread.
