how to delete profile?

[BuzzKillington]

I'm not seeing the option to remove my account. 

Thanks...

There isn't one.

I think a request can be made of the mods.  Certainly there are members who no longer respond to searches.

I asked once to have my profile deleted, never happened.  Discovered later that what we post here is considered the University's property or something, so deleting a profile would be deleting content.  Cyber wanted to have his stuff deleted, tried to do so manually and was banned, but his posts still show up.

No doubt profiles could be deleted, if moderators were given a good enough reason.  Who doesn't show up in a search?

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
'Relax' said the night man,
'We are programmed to receive.
You can check out any time you like,
But you can never leave!'

American Woman or Peeves?  Maybe I wasn't thorough enough...

Did you complain to management?

[bush_cheney2004]

Members who have previously requested deletion have been modified to "Guest <member name>", and they do not show up in member searches.   However, their posted content can still be found on the forum, keeping continuity.
