If he wants to be banned, he can just stop posting. It accomplishes the same thing.
I remember seeing one of those, the Asher impersonation account with the reverse character. You're right, it does look pretty bad.Quote:

That was a while ago now.
Yes but that would make an even bigger mess of the chronology and consistency of the forum threads.
Ohhh, thanks for clarifying pj, I always wondered about that.
I agree.Quote:

*cough* Adam *cough* I suppose your right Merlock, its just a shame there wasn't an easier way because there has to be thousands of accounts which are pretty much wasted, imagine the space that would free up if all the unused accounts were deleted.Quote:

Now watch him come crawling back with a different username anyway.
There is a way, but why would you ever want to do this except in the case of a spam flood? Again, it would utterly disrupt the threads that the user posted in.Quote:

To quote Adam And His Package:
"I am downright amazed
At what I can destroy with just a hammer."
Any Admin or Mod, ban me also. I have no further need for this account, and I want it deleted. I can't find a way to manually destroy it, so there must be a way someone else can.
Know that I am not joking.
I thought Mr. faded_glory was back
shucks
Whoa this guy is serious :)Quote:

Just stop posting. Not hard.Quote:
