This is described as:

> Number of days before an inactive user (trust level 0 without any posts) is removed. To disable clean up set to 0.

Can you confirm that these are the criteria (TL0 and 0 posts)? Is any account taken of when they last logged in and/or read a post, or does the number of days start from registration?

Is there a [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) query to show TL0 users who have 0 posts alongside the relevant number of days? This would be to give an idea of the effect of choosing specific numbers for this setting. Thanks.
