Smaller, more efficient, faster database? Would improve performance.
Yeah, he's right.

At the very least I'd say delete those who registered 1+ years ago and never posted. It wouldn't be the largest number of accounts, but it would clean things up.

Dont do it.
Loosing numbers on a forum is never a good idea. First thing I do when I register at a new forum is check the member base, never who has how many posts of what. Granted I will look at the top posters but different story.
Anyways, we all know how many people actually are active here. And deleting anyone over a year old with 0 posts would be murder. Does anyone have any idea how many that would actually be? Not to mention you loose the "Members: 43,217". Who knows what that could go down to. Its a large number regardless, even if we lost half. But you gotta see my point.
Shouldnt be a problem. Plenty of forums with 100,000 plus members, and they run just as fast, or faster then this one. Minus the white screens as well.
I concur. I don't see how deleting a few members from the database will speed it up or make it more efficient. There are many forums with way more members than this one with perfectly functioning databases.Dont do it.

What about all the usernames that are just garbage, a bunch of letters and numbers that we seem to have so many of? There are pages and pages of them. They should be deleted.Thats like deleting history > 10 years ago. why?
