^ Haha... just throw random profanities in every post in every thread of every forum. (I'm just kidding... don't delete my account, I actually like it).

To answer your question... if you'll notice CC keeps a lot of old threads from like 5+ years ago, and each thread contains now-updated versions of each person's information and the respective posts. If your account got deleted, there would be no reference to who wrote that post, which would be like dividing by zero in that the Universe would collapse.

Just kidding(???)

No can do. Unlike other forums, they want you to be able to look at a thread from years ago and it not have any missing information (including the username)

Many large forums I know of do not allow deletion of threads or users for database purposes.

but they censor it anyway.

like if i was writing **** you ******* then it doesn't show up anyway.

Even though this is keeping a 10 day old thread alive....

In answer to ad.bc's question.... Getting banned won't get your account deleted. It will still be there for future references. You just can't log on.

Give out your password and ask someone to change it and not tell you.

Changing My Username

I screwed up when I registered. It shows my username as ModiviedReality when it was supposed to be ModifiedReality.

Thanks!!

Um, I know this doesn't help, but you almost have a really good CC pun in your username:

ModiviedReality

The staff here doesn't listen to its members. Don't bother.
