Guest Report post Posted August 2, 2016 1 hour ago, Ulder said: Mine too. please! This one makes me wonder. He joined 3 years ago. I've never even seen a post from him. He comes on recently to make just a few posts and immediately asks to have his account removed. Are there email notifications or something if you simply stop visiting the site?

Notice he hasn't been around for awhile. He's sitting on a beach somewhere in the Caribbean with all of the dues he's collected over the years. 5 Palerider, Sunday21, beefche and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My real question is: what does it actually change if the account is deleted? I think for some people it's psychological closure. "I'm done with that site and don't want to be able to post again!" Deleting the account keeps them from posting, kind of like biting your lip. Unless of course they create a new user name, but that's still a little hurdle, enough that would require consciously doing it, which might be what they want to keep themselves from posting again. Lurking I've never really understood. I'm too opinionated and I like writing too much. If I care enough about a site to visit it, I'm probably going to post!

Something like "Look at me! I'm running away, I bet you all are sad to see it! Try and stop me please so I can get more attention. " The answer should be (in most cases) "Well no, in two weeks we won't remember you." Of course, they'll come back with "I don't care what you think. You can say what you want." Which is another sign of their maturity level. Sorry to sound jaded, but I've seen it happen several times before.
