The database won’t care, I assure you:/ Over the past 9 years of using IPB, I’ve come across every possible scenario, including the person who joined for the arcade, and wanted his account deleted.
Posts are kept (unless specified otherwise during delete), and the stats stay the same. Doesn’t lose a member. Deleting does nothing except remove his name from the active users list, and into what I like to call “the phantom category”, which is basically the guests group that you can’t edit:P
Which is why new members are numbered 100,000+ right?
