It matters to me. It shouldn't matter to you WHY I want my account closed. If you want to help, help.
I shall help by telling you that you are getting a bit worked up over nothing.

My future vagina matters to me. It shouldn't matter to you WHY I want my penis inverted. If you want to help, help.
Stop whining, if you cannot be honest with us with a good reason, I see no reason we should assist you at all.

Finally, a somewhat helpful answer. You guys don't close people's accounts?
Yeah, I clicked "I accept [the rules]." Are you telling me that you've never wanted to close an account with any website? How about with a bank, or an elitist grocery store that requires membership?
Bank clerk: "Oh, no, you're stuck with us because you told us you accept our rules. You can't close your account here. Why would you want to, anyway?"
See how absurd that is?

It's not for you to decide if my reason is good or not. I want my account closed because, as I already said, I don't want "thechristophershow" associated with this site.

Over nothing? No one is giving me a straight answer. You're all being immature, trying to rile me up BECAUSE I'm a Christian, when all I want is to close my account. This is exactly what I expected when I first asked the question: Atheists trying to be nuisances instead of kind and helpful.

I don't think we do that here, but I could be wrong.

I'm not an atheist. I worship the only True Gods- Cats. I have asked The Cosmic Kitty to help you with your problem, to show you how nice I really am, and here's what happened:
Sorry, dude.

If you want your penis inverted, why would you ask me for help? I'm not a doctor. If I want to close my account and you don't know the answer, don't respond. Just as if I can't help you with your penis-inversion, I won't respond.

We don't any longer that I know of. Admin would have to verify before I'd be certain.
The only account I want to "close" is an account with a game company that I no longer know my info for and yet charges me 80 dollars yearly (will get the subscription ended by the next time). I honestly do not give a shit if they keep the info.

No, actually... I don't see how that's absurd. If you accepted a contract of any sort which gives another person power over you: you have allowed them certain privileges over you.
Seriously, just drop it and leave. What have you posted that is a security issue we can help you with for a good reason?
Quote:It's not for you to decide if my reason is good or not. I want my account closed because, as I already said, I don't want "thechristophershow" associated with this site.
Then you should have used a different username, shouldn't you?
But you're right, it's not for me to decide: it's for the staff here to do. If you would rather have no explanation and be ignored: be my guest.
If it's such a problem: ask for a name change. Won't help with the quotes with your name in them, of course... but it's something.

I do not give a rat's left ankle that you are a Christian.

Why do you assume I'm an Atheist?
I have now assumed that you are a fucking moron and no loss to the site at all.

The "good reason" you seek is that I don't want my "thechristophershow" name on this website. That's a good reason because it concerns me and I am the only one who knows whether or not it's a good reason BECAUSE it concerns me. It doesn't concern you why. It is not your business why. It is not for you to judge whether it's a good reason or not.
Your game-company example is analogous to my bank example.
The rules and TOS of this site are not, "You can't close your account and you will be harrassed if you ask us to." The TOS are that you obey the rules. There is nothing in the TOS that says my account can't be closed, so there is nothing wrong with my asking to close my account. I am not in violation of the TOS in asking this.
If it's "impossible" to close my account, fine. All of this could have been avoided if someone said that in the beginning instead of the harrassment.

Sorry, there is no erasing your presence from the site. And now to compound matters your TheChristopherShow username will forever be associated with atheists and inverted penises in the Googleverse.
