Dunno, but it's occurred before that people have explicitly requested their account to be deleted, usually after dumb arguments or fits of emo. It's also a good way to remove traces of one's activity on a forum (although that's probably undoable, ), and I'm sure there's people that like that.
I think I can remove the option, if there's any valid reasons to.
I kind of figured you'd guys would ban him, but he's pretty clever about hiding his accounts and causing crap behind the scenes. But then, it's really a simple matter of reporting him and anyways, it's not like I can't lie low until he ends up under the banhammer light on his own. He was never able to keep his shit silent for too long.
Eh, nevermind me. Remove or keep the option; as long as it's still an option by contacting staff I'm coolios with it.

Ok, I see now (just thought it was odd.) Thanks for answering

He's not that smart. Whatever intelligence he has is trumped by his arrogance and brazen idiocy when it comes to dealing with people he's at odds with.
If he shows up, he'll be dealt with accordingly, this I'm sure of.
Thanks. Hopefully between people banning him wherever he goes and the multi-blocking, changing numbers, etc. etc. I can finally get some peace from him.
Sorry for making this thread about me and the fucktarded problems I have >_>
Also, is the delete option reversible? What if someone hits it by accident? Can they and/or staff bring the account back?
Ja, but even then, it depends on how the deletion is implemented. It might be a simple 'hide' function, i.e. that the user's account and all posts and threads he/she's made are marked as hidden, or it could be a full baleet, where everything the user has made is baleted.
If it deletes all their poasts then yeah, it probably wouldn't be possible to restore. But as long as it saves their poasts + you have their username and email, then shouldn't be too hard to restore accounts.
