So I've noticed that there are a ton of non-active members here, so I was thinking that maybe it would be wise to remove the ones that have been absent for a long period of time to clean up the forum a bit and for other people to see who is still active...

No. Old posts are still plenty relevant, and just because someone hasn't posted, doesn't mean their account should be deleted.

To be honest, the only reason to do that would be if this were a massive forum with thousands of 0-post accounts, either made by spambots or just people who forget about the site.

I think deleting people with less than 30 posts who have been inactive for a year or so would be ideal for the chopping board ;)

In all honesty people just probably forgot they signed up here :)

I just recently found out I created a reddit account back in 2005 LOL

Maybe some will eventually return....

Besides, deleting members would be disastrous for forum publicity, internet penetration and looking over old conversations as people will inevitably come to do in the following years.

What about those people who only like to post links on their status? Are they like bots or something?

It's twitter integration. It should auto prune them from the updates eventually.
