How does one delete an account?

Haters gonna hate and ainters gonna ain't.

Honestly, I don't "hate" anyone on this forum, including you (despite your best efforts). We clearly have different points of view from time to time, but IMO they are mostly style/perception differences.

Some of us are just a bit more tactful and discrete than others.

I know others on this site have requested and been granted a name change.

Yes, I'm aware of a few. At this point, for me anyway, it's not an issue.

Good to know that there's precedent, however.

As stated it's really more of a database thing, (it can really hose up the system, think of quoted posts, etc etc etc) even if banned or perma-banned your Identity stays here for all eternity, CAN it be done? yeah, but it's rare on any forum to have your total existence wiped out

Nuke it from orbit

Hmm the posts from claypigeon disappeared as did one of mine

Watching people self destruct is one of the benefits of not using the ignore feature.

^^^^^^^This is the best part of my paid membership.

GUNMANSUPERSTAR comes to mind as an epic frag out.

I know what she said, what did you?

Something like "the trolling is getting old"

Probably should have left it alone but that crap really drives me nuts. I come here to mingle with like-minded folks, not watch people act like children

Yes, a name change would be useful. That shouldn't foul up the works. Or even changing ones name to Guest upon request.

Again, I'm not looking to delete my account. But before the Snallygaster beer fest began, a Google search on the term turned up plenty of personal identifiers - so I think there are valid reasons for wanting a name change or deletion. Without going into detail, but as an example, my participation on MDS came up in a conversation in relation to an advisory role with Maryland's venture capital authority.

So you're a closeted gun owner who's having a crisis because you might have been outed?

No. If it were a crisis, I'd request a name change.

Not to be too pointed, but if you have personal identifiers associated with your screen name you messed up.

But for one inadvertent screwup (not just mine) 2 years ago, I would be completely anonymous. It can be done.

But, a cosmetic name change on your forum account doesn't change anything on the forum for the intrepid.

Now, if you abandon this account and re-up under another name?? That's between you and the Mods...

Ahhhh I miss Devon, bet someone else does too!

Agreed. A complete lack of foresight on my part. I have no real expectation of anonymity here or elsewhere on the interwebz, but, you know, might as well not make it easy for people. Particularly criminals.

My advice -

Call the number on this card. Tell the guy "I need a new dust filter for my Hoover MaxExtract PressurePro model 60."

He will take it from there.

Don't get in the maroon mini van.

It's a trap.
