Hello
I wanted to "un"-register and delete my account here at SRP; how does one do that? I could find no obvious path out the door.

Now THAT'S what I'll miss the most from here.:beer1:Quote:

Farewell and Godspeed.

Dave, I'm really not sure, you may want to contact a Mod. I was looking under my account settings and didn't find anything. I know they have a place you can unsubscribe from threads in settings you may have subscribed to. Sorry to see you leaving, wish you well!
Why leave? God bless and be careful!
Reminds me of a song. SRP is like Hotel California.
Make sure you back up all data first and put all pictures and contacts in a separate folder on another hard drive if possible. Run a complete registry scan to find the root kit this program downloaded while you read the "user agreement". A bandwidth test is not required but highly advisable (you may see a increase in bandwidth). Go to System Restore and go back to a date before you joined SRP. Delete everything after that date. If none of this works just remove the short cut from your desk top and hope no one posts anything ever again. A change of e-mail address might also help.
Sorry to see you go .
Do not type straightrazorplace.com into your browser ever again. Problem solved.
We don't do that, for a couple of reasons.
First, sometimes people leave, and then come back. Deleting their account in between would be a hassle.
Second, it would leave orphaned data in the database (data which is not linked to master records) which is generally a very bad idea. We could solve this by deleting everything linked to you, but we don't do that because of number 3.
Third, balefire creates more problems than it solves (wheel of time reference). If we not only delete you, but also all of your posts, we'd still run into problems. Because threads in which you ever replied would unravel. Parts of the discussion would no longer make sense to the person reading them next. And if it was only you, that would not be too bad, but if more people ask to be deleted when they leave, older threads would slowly disintegrate.
For these 3 reasons, we don't do that.
If you no longer feel like participating, just stop logging in.
Always sad to see someone leave. :(
I agree. I think it's best to leave the account open, that way you can take some time off and when you're ready to come back the door is still open :)Quote:
