Accounts Deleted

[Dave Leip]

Note that I have removed almost 1000 unused accounts (most older than 1 year that either never logged in or have no posts).  Note also that I am aware that I did delete a couple of accounts in the process where the user had logged in more recently (but there were no posts).  Just create a new account if that impacted you specifically (since the username is removed and the email is removed, you can use the same parameters).
Thanks,
Dave

Thanks for the heads up, Dave.

While you're on site, would you please respond to Joe Republic's thread on Moderator's Corner?  Thanks in advance.

Dave,

Is there a way we can have an option to delete our accounts if we decide to leave permanently?

The answer to your question is in the 1st post.

E-Mail Dave and he will erase your account - forever.

Nobody told him not to delete kljackson?

What's to stop someone from forging an email from me saying "Please delete my account"?

Nowhere, but I guess he´s the only one that can remove an account as mentioned in the first post by him. If you mail him from the email account with which you have registered, then I guess he could.

Uh....I could easily forge an email so that it says "sent from" your email address, even if it was sent from my account.  That's trivial in many email programs.

Were any other noteworthy accounts other than kljackson deleted?

Well not you specifically, but many of us have our email addresses listed in our public profile.

Well, then there´s also the possibility that Dave only deletes accounts where he got an email and the correct password to log into the Forum. This can only be known if the account of the user was somehow hacked.

Yep.  As long as either:

1) You have to demonstrate that you know the account's password, or...
2) Dave replies to the initial email with a request for a followup confirmation email,

then it's fine.  But if all it takes is a single email that appears to be from the appropriate email address, then that's way too easy a way to delete accounts.

He's had a no deleting policy in the past (other than for space now, I guess)... that's what got us into that whole TexasIndy situation.

Actually kljackson was a victim of an earlier purge of unused accounts.
