Glad you found out the problem. I was skeptical :eheh:
Just to see if I got it right... now if you are inactive for 7 days your list stops syncing, but if you come back you are on the auto-sync period again?
In this case would it be possible to start the sync as soon as you login after you have been inactive? I think since this website is all about lists it is probably a good idea to get the user to the status she is expecting.
Still would be nice to do it for a longer period. 14 days I say.

My point of view is to remove items from wishlist that are in the library by default. It is important to keep the lists up to date and with the current behaviour manual intervention is required. The flag would help the minority of users that use it for other purposes.
Also take into account the games that are removed from the wishlist from Lestrades. But again steam should always have priority. I am actually not exactly sure why would anyone mess with the wishlist from lestrades, but not from steam.

Apparently some people like Lestrades for its easy of use, search games and maybe watch play count. Auto-sync might be wasted, I think it is a matter of understanding how people use the website.

Quick poll: should I use the auto-sync scheduled task to also remove items that went from your wishlist to your library..? Or maybe limit it to Steam wishlisted items that went to your library, since it's likely you would want those for yourself only. Of course, I'd exclude all games with a + (extra) tag... I never did it until now because I record these things and I tell users to remove their wishlisted items when they visit their wishlist.
Maybe I could make it a flag when I start overhauling the profile area... By default, remove wishlisted when found in library. If a checkbox is clicked, only ask for advice when visiting the wishlist area.

I'm also considering not syncing wishlist & library until the user started adding tradables... I've occasionally seen people register to the site, and then no longer come back to it, making LT import their wishlist & library for zero benefits (except artificially changing the H:W ratio for nothing.)
