NOTICE: Kommunity at Full Capacity, Inactive Accounts Being Removed **UPDATED**

**UPDATE**

We have reduced the membership count enough to unlock sign-ups and add new members to the Kommunity again!

Huge thanks goes to our K-Mod and administrator Gumbo123 for really leading this effort.

Keeping the membership count under the new 100,000 limit will continue to be an ongoing task. The criteria for account deletion that are detailed in the original message (below) still remain.

Thank you for all your patience and understanding, Mythical Beasts! The Kommunity is open again! :)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello, Kommunity --

Earlier, we informed you that sign-ups were temporarily closed due to an unforeseen change in our Ning account plan that instated a new 100,000 membership limit on our site. Ning initially told us that we don't have a membership limit and should function as normal, but after Rhett and Link pursued the issue when our sign-ups remained blocked, Ning reversed its position and informed us that the 100,000 membership limit is part of our account plan. In order to add new members, we must either stay below the 100,000 limit or upgrade to the next account tier, which is an unrealistically expensive tier for us.

We're sorry to say that the moderators must now start removing inactive accounts in order to add any new ones going forward.

WHAT THIS MEANS

Effective today, the moderators will begin reviewing and removing inactive Kommunity accounts. We currently have 107,500 member accounts and must be well below the 100,000 cap to have room to add new members in the future.

The moderators have agreed to very limited, strict criteria for removal that will ensure we only remove accounts that were created but never used.

Accounts that meet ALL of the following criteria will be removed:

  1. Joined on or after August 1, 2011
  2. Joined on or before July 31, 2015
  3. No listed activity in the activity log. Activity includes uploads, comments, likes, friends added, and profile pictures.

Examples:

Account A joined on April 20, 2015 and has zero account activity. Account A will be removed.

Account B joined on April 20, 2015 and has one or more activity events in the activity log. Account B will not be removed.

This will remain an ongoing process, even after membership is below the limit again. The moderators do not have a deadline for completion.

WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO

Members do not have to do anything during this process.

Please be assured that accounts that meet ONE OR MORE of these criteria will NOT be removed:

  1. Joined on or after August 1, 2015
  2. Joined on or before July 31, 2011
  3. Have one or more activity events in the activity log

If you meet any of these criteria, you do not have to be concerned about your account.

As always, if you have any questions, please let us know!

Sincerely,

Your K-Mods

PHASE 1 is now complete! 

8,000+ "lookie-loos" removed from the membership roll to make some room for new blood.

The mission will continue on a daily basis. 

Thank you all for your understanding and support.

Wow, thank you guys so much for all of the hard work and time you are spending on this for all of us. Since we have new members still waiting to get in, it looks like we might continuously hover around 100,000 members. This might be a never ending up keep. Thanks again for keeping us posted.

I agree with Jaymie, it's exciting, but ultimately also sad.

PS:The country breakdown is incredibly awesome though~

For anyone who wondered, this is what the wonderful world of MB distribution looks like . . .
