We have right now 4400~ marked as pending (spam) but since today there is a new plugin that send an email to confirm the account (in the same day).
In this way we can avoid the spambot that creates events just for... spamming.

So we need to clean up also the 1000~ users already enabled in the portal and remove the ones that never joined an event or created one.
Probably I can achieve something with an export or with wp-cli but I will need for that a SSH access.
Another option is a scraper that open every user profile to see if the page is filled with just something that is not only the nickname. In the backend we can add a column that marks user with events created and booked events so we can sort them and remove it easily (probably it is the best option).

@Mte90 for the first suggestion you have can we also connect them not only with events but also for groups? otherwise it seems narrow
