Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

I think if somebody registered an account but never posted it could be pruned after a certain ammount of time. Most were probably created by bots or something anyway. |

Over 130,000 members have posts at this forum.This indicates it is indeed a huge forum. Still 60% members have no posts which is strange.

That kinda makes sense, they probably come back and sell them just cause user names can be used for a certain company. who knows. |

I think the way things work right now
If you have an old and inactive acct you can return load up lots of low value posts and shoot up your activity level quickly
Therefore valuable

I don't think It works like that. If you have inactive account even for 1 year and then come back, you'll still get 14 activity per 2 weeks period and no more. So how can you "shoot up" your activity level quickly? |

BitcoinBadger, the way you describe it makes logical sense and is the way it should be
I recall another thread where my thesis appeared to be confirmed
Would be nice if somebody could authoritatively confirm or deny

I got more interested on the reasons why this number is huge.
I agree that one reason is maybe they forget the passwords but I think it could be retrieved by forget your password link, right?

I knew there are always some ghost accounts that are registered and never used on every service. But this number on Bitcointalk forum is way too high, admins should wipe some never used account maybe like once in 36 months.

That is a remarkable number of inactive accounts and I agree that the time logged in number would be equally interesting and another piece of the puzzle of why these accounts were created and could be used for. Does anyone know what is typical for other forums? Unless it is zero work for the system, I see no reason to keep inactive and unused accounts. |

Most Forum's do that (if the account doesn't do anything for more than a month). these just take lines and occupy usernames. |
