So Jim nuked the account (only he can do that to older accounts)

Just out of curiousity, would you please define with a bit more clarity the term older accounts.

Sure. Older means older by time (although that is subject to change in the next software version). I don't want to give the exact timeframe, because experience has shown that if we do that, then we will have a ton of accounts wait that long before doing anything.

Beyond the software restriction, Jim prefers to handle the banning or nuking of "established" freepers himself. What makes for established? Time and involvement. Would this "wasfree" person have qualified? I say no (which is what I did the ban, asking Jim to look and nuke if he felt appropriate). He was established by time, but by the counters here I can see how much posting he had done, and it wasn't much until the past month. And being a long timer with a good memory, I don't remember him from before the counters went into place back in 2000.

Not sure but I believe "older accounts" stop with those who signed up after freeper #1235 (MCCXXXV)
