Hi Praveen,
For the foreseeable future, we are going to hold the number of bits constant and we are going to reclaim bits when members are inactive. We are not going to "inflate" bits so inactive members can keep them in their account.
And, based on the economic numbers, there is no reason to "inflate" the economy to account for inactive users. I can assure you, active members who do not have their bits reclaimed after inactivity (because they are active) are not advocating a change in the system or inflating bits
And, as mentioned, the "economic numbers" on the banking page speak for themselves - there is no reason to create a policy of bit inflation to account for inactive users; as this decreases the "forum value" of "activity bits" for active members of the community.
We are going to keep things as they are for the foreseeable future; and we reserve the right to change the time period of inactivity to 5 months, 3 months, one month; based on what we see as system admins. Based on what we have seen over the past year, 6 months is just about the right "reclaim period" and this will remain our policy as long as it works well for the system.
Thank you for your comments.
