Grace periods involve making the inactive user's rights expire in 2 weeks when they would have otherwise been removed in 2 weeks. |
|||
Grace periods were an optional way to enforce this policy. This involved setting an inactive user's rights to expire after two weeks, rather than removing them immediately; this allows the inactive user to receive a notification, prompting them to return to activity and revert the changes made to their rights. They have now been replaced by an automated process. |
|||
It adds extra notification to the inactive user, who can always change their rights back. |
