What do you mean by "last page"? I wouldn't delete anyone who has been active on the forum recently, or who registered recently.

i think these memebers should be delted and an email sent to their email (if possible) confirming that they have been deleted due to inactivity.
Nah, that's ridiculous. :p

Most of the users who haven't signed in in the past year or 2 are already deleted. I last pruned users only 3 or 4 months ago.

This isn't Hotmail. Bad comparison. :p

crude but effective and understandable method: send an email to users who are inactive for (let's say) 6 months... no confirmation back within 7 days? then prune-time.... (this is done on lots of services where you need to subscribe)
