Some mod already said that's a dupe, but I was looking for a way to delete my account a week or two ago too..
 
Well, we have to if we're asked.
But we need to be 100% sure that the person asking is really the account owner, not just someone hijacking a session.
And also we'd like to understand the reasons behind this. It's important to see what we've done to cause the departure of a member, so that we can prevent such a thing from happening again.

Oh, I departed because Spikey is an ass, but you can hardly prevent that. *goes back to never being here again*

Ace Gunman...Anywho, we don't delete accounts. If they want to leave, sorry to hear it, but their accounts stay active (tell'im that next time).

This would be true but the guy only has 3 posts.

Maybe because of that "Just wanna say hell to all" typo accident

Edit: Jumpan17 (I forgot, the admin who has spongebob as his avatar) told us that Galactus actually has 2 accounts, look for Galactus's introduction topic

Whoa whoa whoa, since when? All of the other staff members, myself included, have been enforcing the "we don't delete accounts, but you're free to leave if you wish" policy.

since we're hosted in France

besides, the only times I was ever asked to delete accounts, I asked the guys why and the usual reply is "I don't want my name to appear". So the solution we found was to just rename the account to something random.
But if the person really wants their account deleted, french laws force us to respect their wish. According to these, anyone is entitled to edit & delete their accounts from any computer database (as long as the database isn't a government service of course).
However it is our role to make 100% sure that the person requesting the deletion is the actual account owner.
