Cleanup Action

[Silverthorn]

why should it be cleaned up?
are there something there that shouldnt be there?
i dont really know.

Why would you keep dead files on your comp? You'd delete them to: gain free disk space.
So why would we need dead accounts/attachments/etc on the server? We deleted them to: gain free server space.

oh ok, now i get it more,
so it is a dead thread or there are dead things in it?

In the vast world of bits and bytes, the elders have decided to declare the pure flow of electrons, photons and the like as unliving matter. After a long and heated debate among them, this was their final conclusion, thus redefining the terms "living" and "dead" became necessary. It has been revealed to the ordinary people that the dead amongst the bits and bytes are those that have not reacted in a certain way within a certain timespan thus giving the impression of being "dead". Data that has not been used over this timespan has often been declared as useless, so the elders decided to free the world from this burden by inventing: the Recycle Bin. Now, public has had a possibility to clean up the mess the unwanted files have created and thus the world became happy and peaceful again.

And this is what we did there, too.

Hey, latter throughout the trash sometimes I look over some of the threads...
Oh well...
Couldn't you send them to a different location thats not from LFE Website...
so we won't see them here but you can always look through the trash...?
Just an idea, hosting a dead website with dead threads and such such...
I personally get bored online and look through discarded stuff...
but It's allready to late, right...?

get bored online and look through discarded stuff...

Then this might be a reason to keep the disposal?
I don't really see a problem with the disposal... I mean, why not having it? If it would take up unnescesary space, the admins should have removed it, right?

EDIT: Oh, my bad. I misunderstood you.

[KaywonnJuto]

no...
I ment throw it away in an un-used web...
how bout this one?
http://www2.lf-empire.de/
lol, idk...
just wanted to see junk...not in interest but out of boredom...
this is what I wanted (not a request but appreciate it if it was...)
was to have it disposeled but the dicarded stuff autmatically goes to a different site...just for refference...
so this won't take up room...better internet connection then...? erm...right?

[Silverthorn]

If we leave the data on this server (lf-empire.de), it'll still be junk taking up free space. Using another server would mean to pay for it. No, thanks. Making an automatic url-upload to some file hoster sounds like an alternative but I think it's just something absolutely redundant thing.....

[KaywonnJuto]

oh!
I wasn't thinking about the cost...
thanks
