How do I delete my account & posts?
You can delete your own posts... one at a time. Use the search engine to show all posts created by yourself, open each one, and click the 'delete' button at the bottom of the post. The delete option is there, and from that point onwards you'll know what to do. You're awesome enough to be reading this FAQ, so we have every faith in you.
However, your general awesomeness does not extend to deleting posts in closed or archived threads. The board software does not allow users to edit or remove their contributions when a thread is closed or archived. As such, you'll need to PM the forum moderators and ask them to do it. If you've already deleted the bulk of your other posts, the moderators should do this for you - although it remains at their discretion. If you get no joy via this route, feel free to report the posts in question and bring it to the attention of other staff members.
To address account deletion, use the 'Contact Us' page indicating your username and request it. This is sent directly to the admin. We should get back to you shortly. Please note that deletion of the account with removal of all posts can only be done if an account has 25 or fewer posts. For accounts with more content, your username and e-mail address will be removed, but any posts you have not already deleted will stay in place at the time of your account anonymisation, under an anonymous username. Also, we cannot remove quotes of your content (and username) by other users.
I really don't think it's even about money, probably more of a principal and possibly coding limitations.I am assuming if you open up your wallet enough the admins would maybe help out haha.
I thought you can't delete past posts as a regular bluelighter after the edit post time limit has expired?
'Ninja edits' are those we do in the first few minutes and don't show up as having edited the post, it's just the post as original posted.
Coming back after those few minutes, either hours, weeks, years later, you CAN still edit or delete your post. Unless the thread has been locked (I think). You may also be thinking of the 'archive' sub-forums we used to have which were pretty much locked from edits, but we've done away with those and keep the golden oldie threads in with the main population these days.
Can one's post also be deleted if there are other posts that come after it?
I had the same problem. I just kinda hastily made a username, probably high or something, 10 years ago not really thinking I was gonna stick around and take the site seriously. Shortly after I became a mod I changed my name to deficiT and been going strong ever since. I'm definitely much happier with the name and glad I changed it.Yeah. I would think that just an email to an admin and having them absorb it into Jabberwocky would be ideal. Easy peasy and no deleting thousands of posts one at a time. I was just joshing about the $500.
However I am seriously considering donating the $25 to change my name. I made Pumpkin in haste and it isn't really me. It's my dogs name and what I use for Netflix, hulu, banking, emails....etc
Those sites are generic but I have come to find BL more personal than other random logins. Pumpkin doesn't define me but I'm not sure what does. I often try to analyze others names on here or anagram them thinking their name is embedded somehow. Some are obvious( names of drugs ) plus another word but some are not so apparent. So after 8 months I am thinking about changing my name to something that I feel defines me on BL. Trouble is I'm not sure what does.
I named my dog Pumpkin because I got her 3 days before Halloween and one of her brindle colors was a burnt orange but my BL personality is not a pumpkin. It defines and fits her well but I gotta get another handle. Guess since it's almost October I will keep it through the Fall season ( leaves are changing here btw ) then change it Nov. 1.
There's gotta be a way to write a little code that can delete posts on your account.
From BLUA
- interfere with service to any user or host including, without limitation, mail-bombing, flooding, and attempting to deliberately overload the system;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access to data, accounts or systems of this site, or probe, scan or test the vulnerability of a system of this site;
Such scripts can a) run afoul of that if they mess with our database, or b) bork the server if run incorrectly. While in theory what you propose could be done, I'd recommend anyone considering doing so to NOT do so.
