The keymag forums currently have 4,795 members listed, but looking through the list some 1,630 (about 34%) of them have NEVER posted a thing. I wonder, is this taking up space for the forums and slowing things down?
I mean each one of those non-participating members has a profile. Is it time for a purge Webmaster?
The number of members that have made just ONE or TWO posts but are now dormant is also large.

The one benefit is your own Anna – if you are me, of course!;)

Would you really want to be Flood ?

Good idea, they should have to post so many per month or be evicted, just like Big Brother
What – something like 100+ a week, do you mean? Then we’d all be Flood and he’d be slacking!!! – Nermal

But on a purely technical level wouldn’t the deleting of inactive profiles free up memory/bandwidth for the server and speed things up for the rest of us?

Leave them be. Some people find posting on the forum a very intimidating prospect, I lurked for a long time before making a post.
And look at the quality since then, maybe you should have lurked longer !!!:D
