delete account

Sorry kewpie, I saw that after I posted the first time so then I edited it.

The reason why I want to delete my account?
I found out security on the internet isn't what it should be, and what I thought it would be when I was younger.

More and more people I know personally became victim of internet crime. Hacked accounts, virtual identity theft, stealing credit card numbers,...
It made me realise that we are not very careful with our privacy and security on the internet.

Also the fact that more and more sites become victim of data thieves (even the PS network) shows that we have to watch out.

OK, so what has red hot pawn has to do with it?
A simple google search brought me here. I forgot about this site really fast (I use another site for chess games).
But if a simple google search can link this account to my identity, it's another easy step for thieves who wants to get to my more important accounts. The use of similar passwords and logins is dangerous, but who is not using the same password for different sites?
I changed it already, but the fact I don't use this site, and this site doesn't need my password and other data, why shouldn't I be able to delete my account?

Send a feedback to admin. Ask them to terminate your account.

Use lots of cuss words, and remember they love Irish jokes. 😕

It was the 11th of December in Europe when he moved, but still the 10th of the December in the U.S.A.

Foolish. Let me guess, you google searched your name you're using on other sites and this popped up. Next you go to the public forum to complain when all you had to do was send feedback and ask the admins to change your old user name slightly.

So if there were any security concerns with RHP coming up searching the name you use all over the web they were caused by YOU just now by pointing out your non existent problem.

Good work.
