Does LL delete unused accounts?

Recently, we have received a number of requests from the Second Life community to seize land from long-term inactive Residents on the Main Grid. While we are unprepared to reclaim land from Residents who haven’t logged recently, we’ve decided to embark on a different approach, one we feel will produce more palatable results for both active and inactive Residents. Keeping your concerns in mind, we have reached out though e-mail to Lifetime Residents who own land and yet haven’t logged during the past 12 months.

It goes without saying that we would all prefer to see those Residents return and participate again in the Second Life community. In this vein, we invited them to rejoin. In the event that those Residents are unable to return and in keeping with our commitments to active Residents who would prefer to see unused land folded back into the larger SL community, we have offered to auction inactive Resident land and deposit all L$ proceeds into the corresponding Second Life L$ accounts. We hope this approach satisfies all parties involved, and we will keep the community apprised of further developments.

I’d like to make it very clear that we will only auction off land belonging to lifetime account holders if they respond to us that they would like us to take that action. We are not planning to declare eminent domain; only ask people who are inactive if they’d 1) like to return or 2) have us sell off land they aren’t using and return the proceeds to them.

Also, @4 is correct in stating that this would only apply to people who have lifetime accounts, and therefore 4096 m2 of land free of tier payments. We would not ever repossess land from a customer who is actively paying for their land, regardless of how long it was since their last long-in.
