Re: Removing inactive members from the Docs FAS Group

Well, if you are trying to get a good count of people that are in the
group you want to clear out those that are obviously not contributing.
Things change so if you are coming back after a five year hiatus we
might want to re-educate you on new processes.

So what if someone is "inactive" maybe they could want to contribute something tomorrow or next month. Why should they have to do anything in order to do what they have been able to do before. Why is having inactive accounts such a big deal? If I was counting numbers I would rather be able to count "125 contributors, 12 are inactive" than "113 contributors" when we all know that a large part of that 113 have not done anything in docs in a long time if ever, they just happened to re-set their password.
