I respect the rules over here, but this one's just out of curiosity. Why aren't accounts deleted of PF?

From the rules:

Neither member accounts nor a member's posts will be deleted on demand. It is up to the discretion of the forum owners and admins. Posts are for everyone's benefit and should be thought of as permanent.

Yes. It is a whole process though to do it. It is up to the user to take the challenge.

Do you know what the steps are to begin the process?

This movie explains the process you must go through:

In short: you must travel to the end of the world, beat the cyclops and blow the golden horn of destiny. The spectral wold will then attack you. If you defeat him, then he will give you a key to a castle. To reach this castle, you must answer 3 riddles. Once you enter the castle, you will have to cook a meal for the landlord. If he likes your meal, then he will tell you what the next step in the journey is.

Alternatively, you can send a PM to Greg: https://www.physicsforums.com/member.php?u=1

Lol! Perhaps being Rick Roll'd should be a prerequisite for name change :-p

I think that's a good post to end this thread on.
 

FAQ: Can you delete my account to this forum

Can you permanently delete my account from this forum?

Yes, as a scientist, I have the ability to permanently delete your account from this forum. However, please keep in mind that this action cannot be undone and all of your account information, including posts and personal information, will be permanently removed.

Will my account be completely removed from the forum's database?

Yes, if you request for your account to be deleted, it will be completely removed from the forum's database. This means that no one will be able to access your account or any of the information associated with it.

Is there a way to temporarily deactivate my account instead of deleting it permanently?

Unfortunately, as a scientist, I do not have the ability to temporarily deactivate accounts. However, you can choose to simply log out of your account and refrain from using it for a certain period of time.

Can I still view posts and threads on the forum after my account has been deleted?

No, once your account is deleted, you will no longer have access to the forum and all of its content. This includes posts, threads, and any other information on the forum.

Will my account deletion affect any ongoing discussions or posts I have made on the forum?

Yes, if your account is deleted, all of your posts and discussions on the forum will also be removed. This may affect ongoing discussions or threads that you have participated in, as your contributions will no longer be visible.
