I already did Ireland and Spain and gave my findings above. I don �t know you Victor, but one thing I �ve learned from seeing all of this and reading your posts is that you �re an intelligent person. You will always have the final decision about what to do with your page and I, for one, will accept whatever decision you make. I also agree with what aftab57 says. I was also a member here for some months before daring to upload anything. Maybe you have the date of registration for all users and can make a decision based on that. Anyway, you have my total support. Rosemary |

Something else to consider is that a member �s profile data is actually quite small. I can hazard a guess & say in the kilobytes of data, even if there is a profile picture. if a profile doesn �t include a picture it may be in the 10 �s of kilobytes rather than the 100 �s. This means that there would be around 15 - 20 members data for every worksheet uploaded in equivalent storage space. So while it would clear a lot of space to delete many accounts... it would be necessary to delete 15 - 20 times the number of accounts when compared to worksheets to free up the same amount of server space.
I believe that aftab has hit the nail on the head - care is important when deleting accounts. Some accounts are being deleted because of users uploading stolen material, etc - which is appropriate. I think that it is important not to �jump the gun � & delete user accounts wholesale just because they have 0 contributions

AB - no accounts are being deleted because of copying - they are just been emptied of copied /stolen or not worthy ws and points. The accounts still exist.
It was just a suggestion. (as way to possibly free up some space - if vey old, empty/ 0 point accounts got deleted.) This is of course Victor �s site and he will decide if it he wants to /can or needs to. |

220 pages from Indonesia, only 15 pages of users with points. A huge number of users with 0 points!
However, I also know that internet is still a luxury for many teachers in Indonesia... and in many rural areas, the connection is soooo slow; the bandwith is very limited. So, I can fully understand them not being able to upload anything yet.
However (again), a time limit for waiting period IS a fair option, I guess.
