Deleting account and profile

[Mr M5]

Good Morning,

Can somebody walk me through the steps of how to delete my profile?

Thank you,

[parshooter]

Go to Settings, go to My Settings, go to Edit Profile. Edit away.

So, is there a way to actually delete the account and profile? All you can do is edit, but can't delete it.

As a forum member the answer is no. Only an Admin can delete or modify a member's account.


And just to point out, I don't know of any setting in the Admin Panel for ANY version of vBulletin discussion forum software, (that's what this forum is a vBulletin powered forum), where you can switch the setting for a forum member to delete their own account.

This could be for legal reasons and also at a minimum, continuity reasons.

Can you imagine if a forum member with 40,000+ threads and posts just got out of bed one day and decided to DELETE their account? I would make a MESS of every discussion they were ever a part of not to mention remove any thread they started.


I'm not exactly sure what if any protocol we here at Autogeek have for a request to delete an account but seeing that you only have a single post, that is the reply to this thread, I don't see a problem to delete your account.


Shoot me an e-mail requesting your account to be deleted and I'll get management's decision on the path to follow.
