Official Account Deletion Request thread

[Deleted member 86764]

Can my account be deleted, @BRiT? Ta.

My time is better spent elsewhere. You'd honestly be doing me a favour.

Bro ?
Better to take a break or just log out?

Interestingly, I've just realised this is the only forum I use regularly where the user cannot delete their account.

Most seemed to have implemented user-choice account deletion, probably because of GDPR. Does that mean requests to delete accounts that are not honoured are a breach of GDPR?

If the user resides in the EU, yes.

If the user resides in the EU, yes.

Better to zap then. The EU are not known for their lenient fines.

This is due to Rys running older version of XenForo software.

Note that you're not required to provide user self deletions, you do have to honor them when requested for EU residents. I don't expose self-deletions on my forums but I do get occasional requests to delete. Also deletion doesn't have to mean completely deleting the account and associated content. Xenforo allows the option of anonymizing the content and account details (removing email address etc), which is compliant with GDPR.

How can i delete my profile and all data associated with it?

 

[Deleted member 90741]

Ok. I wish my account and content deleted.
Thank you, and I live in the EU too. I am glad they help folks who don't wish their data lingering around.

Thanks.

REDACTED account was deleted?

 

[Shifty Geezer]

Yes, by request

That's a shame. He was a good egg.

Sorry but whatever measures were taken since the B3D relaunch are not working. It's still mostly platform/IHV fanboys posting for superiority under the guise of 'discussion', with only a very few posters contributing honestly.

It's just not worth reading anymore.

Please delete my account.

 

[Deleted member 101157]

This is a formal request to have this account deleted, including all of its associated data, past posts, and messages.

Thank you

 

[Deleted member 2197]

Can you please delete my account and associated data.

Can you please delete my account and associated data.

Bummer. Take care man.

 

[Albuquerque]

Indeed, they will be missed

 

[homerdog]

Probably a dumb question but there's no way to know who's deleted their accounts?

 

[homerdog]

Well I figured it out
