Comment (by arma):

 If we just delete all the users who haven't logged in in a year, we're
 going to have weird surprises, like somebody creating a new account under
 an old name and suddenly having control over "their" old tickets.

 So as a slight modification of the original idea: how about if the db
 query also checks if they have made a ticket and/or a comment, and skips
 over them if so? I bet that would still take care of most of the unused
 accounts.

 For extra credit, it might then be instructive to look at the accounts
 with only one ticket-or-comment to their credit -- I wonder how many of
 these are spammers that got through.
