Forums - Website Topics - How to delete your account?

Strategyking92 on 19 October 2012

Hey guys,

I made my account 4 years ago, but for the past two I haven't really visited the site nearly as much since the current redesign. It still hurts my eyes, sales figures have taken a backseat, and the forums are still hidden within unnessecary layers of site map. I visit occasionally to see if it gets better but it doesn't. Since there is no hope of it getting any better anytime soon I was wondering if I could get my account deleted.



And that's the only thing I need is *this*. I don't need this or this. Just this PS4... And this gaming PC. - The PS4 and the Gaming PC and that's all I need... And this Xbox 360. - The PS4, the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360, and that's all I need... And these PS3's. - The PS4, and these PS3's, and the Gaming PC, and the Xbox 360... And this Nintendo DS. - The PS4, this Xbox 360, and the Gaming PC, and the PS3's, and that's all *I* need. And that's *all* I need too. I don't need one other thing, not one... I need this. - The Gaming PC and PS4, and Xbox 360, and thePS3's . Well what are you looking at? What do you think I'm some kind of a jerk or something! - And this. That's all I need.

You can't delete it, but if you want to take the extremist route. You can always ask a Mod to perma-ban your account.

I kind of want it just gone. I have a lot of childish posts from when I was like 16 and I would rather them be gone as well.

Are you worried that potential employers/friends/family will read those posts? I highly doubt they will, and I highly doubt they'd care (unless your "childish" posts were really bad!). Hopefully a mod replies to this thread and can clear up your situation for you though.

I really couldn't imagine it's about worrying about job interviews as I can't really picture a CV with the name Strategyking92 :D



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

I can permaban you, but am not able to delete your account. If you want to go back into your posting history and delete all of your posts before it's permabanned, that's about the closest I can come to deleting it.  I doubt that you would want to do that though since you have over 8000 posts.  :p

even if its deleted. If you said something controversial it likely would have been quoted.

I don't see the big deal it's not like your name is a attached. Unless you use your ID everywhere

Why delete your account mere weeks before the Wii U launch???

It's actually a bit silly that someone's account can't be deleted isn't it? I'd imagine there may even be some data protection or privacy law against it. If he wants all of is posts gone then its up to the site to facilitate it IMO.

not to mention ioi copied all of our accounts to gamewise which probably violating some laws.. and you also can't delete those accounts
