Do KGS accounts get deactivated after a certain period of inactivity?
Patience, grasshopper.

No, it is 6 months without a login. I have an account which has not played a game in 7 years and it is still active.
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).

There may be other criteria you need to watch out for. I seem to recall one of my accounts getting deleted even though I'm quite sure I was logging in. Of course I could be mistaken, but my alternate accounts all had games from that period and the account in question is the account I paid for KGS plus on.

For best results, just play a game. The system may hiccup once in a while.

It is 6 months without a login. No other criteria.

I am planning on making it be longer for accounts that have had KGS Plus subscriptions. People have been upset when they go away for 6 months, then even if they buy KGS Plus again their old lectures are gone. Not sure if I'll get that done in the next release or not.

I thought that it was 180 days, and not 6 months.

Gotta mark it accurately on your calendar?
