And what happens when said inactive person no longer has access to the email they originally used to setup the jsp account?


means theoretically they cant recover that account and if they do would be hard. so in the end the account should be deleted.

they should delete the accounts that were never used, since theyre not even recoverable
unless they want to save them in case someone offers to buy the name?

I lost access to this account from 2009-2018.

If the account was never used that’s one thing, however a big part of Njaguar even making Jsp was due to corruption on another site of higher-ups manipulating posts and being able to alter credibility.

It would be cool to have the accounts that have 0 posts since 2003 be deleted but it would kind of go against one of the oringinal principles of no alteration no matter the circumstances.

Would never happen, voted no.

Edit after reading other comments:
The account recovery process is flawed and isn’t 100% by any means.
It took me directly messaging Kevin on another account (pmg) providing information regarding this one. He got this one back to me within 24 hours of my initial PM. Life happens and it’s easy to return to Diablo/Jsp after x amount of years due to nostalgia.

Expanding on the topic of account deletion could you imagine if someone with 20k+ posts lost access and was the center-piece to a lot of item histories and such? Not only would this become a haven for scammers to falsify item origins and online indentity; It would overly complex things so 2500 users can get the usernames they want. Not worth the potential issues.

There’s a lot of things that could be changed, this isn’t one of them though.

"Hi it's me your old friend marvelous want to share accounts?"
This is one reason it is a bad idea.

There are traders who never post, and some who may be deployed for years. Imagine yourself serving overseas for 8 years only to find out your account was no longer available. Definite NO.

The reasons why not have been stated already by many people in this topic. This won't be happening.
