Is it possible to delete an account?

If so- how?

Thanks.

I suppose you could ask a mod/admin to delete you...
...but why would you want to?

No, but it's possible to stop using one.

That's true, Mali just changed her password to random characters haha.


The difference though, is that some message boards allow the administrator to delete an account which will then either remove all of their posts and history of their posting on the forums, OR simply remove their profile, and leave the posts but no links on it to PM, email, view profile etc are active.


Since the Shadowbox sill appears in google - I'd suggest changing your screen name to something else - or something random all together - would be a good option if you want your account not to show up in searches so it's not easily recognizable that you are linked to it.

May I suggest getting yourself banned?  Then you'll never have to post on that board again.

Never.

I do not want to live to archive my own life.
I see it everywhere around me, especially with the popularity of web diaries, forums, and cell phones that take pictures.
I do not want to fall into the subtle trap of truly believing I Blog Therefore I Am.

it's also possible to delete all one's posts,
but not any quotes of them

IMO scary is not the word but predictable.

Predictable, yet scary.  He reminds me of a younger me.  Weird, angry, predictable, and eager to get away from a board without having to take responsibility for my actions while causing a scene.  And by younger, I mean a few months ago.

*sips some apple juice*  Ah, the good ol' days.
