"You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave!"

I should really finish off those lyrics one day. Might make a few bob. :ph34r:

You can't. You can however do what Johnston did and delete all your posts one by one to prove a point :lol:

Does anyone know how I delete my account?

It's time to say goodbye to the world of bass.

If I remember correctly, Mrs. Johnston had a spat with Mods on the subject of being able to say what you think on the forum, there were accusations of hypocracy, and then was unable to delete her account. Johnston backed her up in a forceful manner, then vanished.

I once clicked on the "Member" tab at the header by accident & was surprised at the number of memberships which were created and never used, especially some written in Russian style cyrillic. Presumably that's why members are described as "active" rather than counting them all.

There should be an account delete button; some may use it and wish they hadn't later during an emotional flounce but it would be handy tool to have. I had a forum account hacked once, by a complete d*ck-head & couldn't do anything about it because that had no delete option either.

The only other option is being banned, which can be inconsistent and to a degree, IME, clique-based - though [u][i]some[/i][/u] ;) mods/admins don't appear to be aware of the effect of banning a member from one part of the forum has on other parts.
For eg. Off Topic banning also automatically applies to the Ebay and Technical pages too, there are others but I can't remember just now.

If there was a delete account button it would cause inconsistencies in the site. It would leave threads with parts of conversations missing. Bad idea really.

As for the johnston thing... lets not go there eh? :lol:
