(yet) another way to take money off of the server.

I was thinking that a lot of expired accounts have bomies, hats etc...if those hats/bomies were to be auctioned off (and the money deleted) I'd say you could take a good 50K off of the server.

maybe, but what if the expired accounts re-upgrade only to find out their precious hats/bomies have been taken?

It would help because the bomies would be auctioned off and the money earned from the auctions would sift money out of the server.

Just make a rule that says that your account is reset as soon as it expires.

No
What if you mean to renew 1 day after account expires?
That'd be starting over every time account expires
