    This should have been posted in the wiki suggestion thread. But, oh well. This has always annoyed me and I'm glad you've posted it because I'm too lazy to :p.

    First off, that doesn't work, if he comes on the 364th day, he's still past 360 day point, which means his stuff is cleared, if requirements achieved, but it's under 365 days so.. yeah. It would read 366+ for that statement to be true.

    It's because it's really simple, the cleanup gets run every 30 days.

    90 days isn't 3 months either, it's slightly more than 3 months.
    180 days isn't 6 months either, it's slightly more than 6 months.

    This is done on purpose so there's a clear schedule to run the cleanup on. (perhaps automated, I'm not sure if andrew actually automated it)

    Couldn't we just remove the brackets they say roughly how long X amount of days is? To stop confusion.

    Nope, because saying 3 months, 6 months and 1 year is easier than 90 days, 180 days and 360 days. It's also a better indication of how much time you have because 90 days requires some thinking (yes, people do think about that), while 3 months is simple.

    Ah I see, No bother - I guess we could just leave that section as is then.
