Remove account

[Bruce]

Perhaps he would like to change his “name” so Internet searches on it don’t pull up anything here (& presumably elsewhere he used the same name).

All he has to do is delete his two posts, then no one but mods can see them.

Time limit to delete posts. And perhaps these are not truly deleted, but just made unviewable.

Think of email. Under certain circumstances, a company must maintain them for a certain number of years, or perhaps forever.

SatelliteGuys is a time capsule from the past 21 years of satellite, no posts are removed, nor are accounts deleted. This is in our user agreement which every member accepts when they sign up and to which they agreed to in order to be able to post.

We have always wanted this to be a place where anyone could research anything about the industry and see things exactly as they happened.

If the person does not want to be a member no more they can just no longer login or scramble their password so they cant login anymore.

I am proud we are a living history book.

And that's the way it is:

The original post is from 2007 for the original poster. They decide 17 years later to want name removed?

Some people don't want old posts to come back to haunt them.

That there is a reason to think long and hard before one posts.

There is some value in merely knowing what sites people may visit. Regardless of content. Sometimes.

If the user wants their username changed, we can do that.

If the user wants their username changed, we can do that.

Or he can do that himself at Account Details.
