With light of the ability to change names (and even for new people coming), there are an unbelievable amount of "inactive" accounts. Basically, the idea is to delete any account that has not been used for a certain amount of time, maybe 2 years or so. Also, give the ability for users to be able to delete his/her account, after passing certain levels of security; things like "What was the original email used to make this account?", and different questions that only the original maker could know.

Benefits for users:
This will allow us to be able to use names that have been unusable for years, due to people making accounts with those names, and then not keeping the account by rather flat out quitting, or has changed to a new account.

Benefits to admins:
Deleting unused accounts will free up space on the hard drives of the servers. This way, it will help save money since you won't have to expand the space every so often.

But why just delete the username? There are more unused accounts on Roblox than there are used ones. Maybe just start off from ones that haven't been on since '06, and slowly work the way up.

Some famous people left roblox forever and should we remembered. Support only if the account has under 10,000 place visits.

For those that do not want this to happen, please explain why. For those that did explain why they don't want it:

XxXPeopleIsFunnyXxX: Test accounts are exactly that; tests. They should have been deleted after the test was completed in the first place.

Collin201: There is a better chance to flip a coin off the Empire State Building in a random direction, and hit an orphan under the age of 12 on the head while the coin is heads up than for an account that has been inactive for 3+ years to be used again, and yes, I know that the example could be a bit over exaggerated.

DoubleA7: Please explain how this is WNTS. The closest that this can come to is the one asking to ban a particular person. Issue is though is that we are not banning a particular person, but deleting old, unused accounts that haven't been logged into in years.

salty1264: Really, if a place is owned by an inactive account, then why not suggest somebody to make it again (or you yourself make it). That way, it would be a place that is actively updated. Most places that are older than a year or two are broken anyways, due to updates in Roblox's Game Engine.

For those of you that didn't say why you don't support (CHRYSLERME412) by giving a leginament reason, your post has been ignored, as stated in Suggestions & Ideas Forum Rules, Rule #1. As for you DoubleA7, you are cutting it close at that rule.

An Idea that came up, but would lower the benefit to the admins, is to only delete the name, but keep everything else.

But, If they do log in, They're not banned, instead the account gets un-deleted until 2 years later.
