Is it possible to completely delete an account from this board?

Paging lexnaturalis cwilli26

That would introduce a lot of issues. Consider all the posts that an account has made. If the account were deleted what would happen to those posts? So as a rule, no it's not possible to delete an account.

An account can be permanently disabled, though.

There are certainly ways to deal with those issues... but, anyway... how do I permanently disable my account, then?

For the record, cwilli26 can't do this. It's Lex or I.

Basically, we perm ban you, which means you can never come back with the email address you used to register.

Are you certain you want to do this? It is irrevocable.
