they should delete acnts that are inactive for like 60 days or something.

A lot of it is because of SC. They may be searching up like: Guedit help, under google. Well the first result is most likely going to be Battleforums. So they get an account and ask the question on SCUMS. Then once the question is answered, they don't go on anymore.

d2 hacking is another big reason. Many users come, make a post trying to get a dupe method or bot help, and never return.

You may be right. I don't know. I don't post in D2 Forum.

Or people could be posting to ask for a CD key.

Well, if the other 21,000 members are actually there, then why don't they appear in the browsing members list? Wouldn't we have an average 1000 users online?

It's also really bad in the WC forums, probably worse. 'sides, I've seen a few in Invisible mode..... posting at the same time as me while offline.....

Still, the member list is worrying. 21000 members, 14000 with 0 posts, probably at least 4000 that are inactive, and about 2000 who aren't really active.....
