I've seen someone ask this before and the answer rollitup gave was that you can't be deleted. You just have to stop posting.

If you're paranoid then it's your own fault. Like the man said, for a site like this you should think of an original handle.

I'm not paranoid, I don't even want to delete my account at this time! However, I strongly believe the option should exist on all subscribed internet forums, sites, lists, etc. The internet should forever be pro-user, not pro-"well maybe the admin can / will do it or maybe he/she won't / can't".

So many other sites / forums have a control panel function that allows you to delete your profile - it's imbedded in the forum software so the admins don't even have to mess with anything.

Doing a google search on 'myself' brings up a weed forum which has been troubling me. There should be a way for users to delete their accounts, if they wanted to.

Damn, I just tried this wondering if the same thing would happen and mother fucker!! The first link is my profile for this site. O well I guess.

If you could just change your username at will thats just going to open up a whole load of problems

Well I can see how if there was an anonomous name post option how it would be good and bad. It does suck that the search engines list your handle out there I wush that didnt happen though
