Can someone please tell me how I permanently delete/remove my account?

I can't find an obvious option on the site...

You don't need to delete your account. It was a brave thread imo.

TheSpottedZebra · 05/06/2017 16:43

I think you just keep on posting goady fuckery and you get banned?

Hth.

DoItTooJulia · 05/06/2017 16:44

First you need to find Flouncers Corner...

KhaleesiMotherofCats · 05/06/2017 16:45

I don't want to flounce. It was a genuine thread, I've never posted anything goady.

Now I'd just like to be told how to leave...

Why was it brave? Hmm

And then further attention seeking here.

PinkSquash · 05/06/2017 16:46

It's hotel California

stitchglitched · 05/06/2017 16:47

Just leave. As in don't use MN anymore. But that wouldn't give you as much attention as this.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 05/06/2017 16:47

It was brave because it's controversial.

Highalert · 05/06/2017 16:47

Go into your account and scroll down to the bottom of the page.

Saucery · 05/06/2017 16:47

Think there's a Deregister option in My Mumsnet. Your posts will stay though, unless you ask MNHQ to delete them, which they may or may not do. If you think your privacy has been compromised they may do that for you but it takes a few days.

KhaleesiMotherofCats · 05/06/2017 16:47

FGS. I'm not seeking attention hence on 'site stuff' not 'chat' or anywhere else.

Can someone just tell me how to delete my account?

Surely if you suspect me of attention seeking commenting here for any reason other than just to say 'Do XYZ to delete your account' would just be playing to that?

I'm in tears and all I want is to know how to delete my account. I'm not flouncing. I just want to leave.

Thank you

Calyrical · 05/06/2017 16:49

You are attention seeking. Otherwise you'd just log out and leave Hmm

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 05/06/2017 16:50

Sorry op, I think the subject was worthy of discussion. Sorry you've been made to feel you have to leave

PurpleDaisies · 05/06/2017 16:50

If you just want to leave and not come back, why does deleting your account matter?

Your posts won't disappear.

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 05/06/2017 16:51

Why don't you email MNHQ. Not sure what has happened but I.sure they will be helpful

In the interim, just block the website and then you can't accidentally come on (e.g. if you still have a browser window open)

Calyrical · 05/06/2017 16:52

Why, TTAT?

picklemepopcorn · 05/06/2017 17:09

Khaleesi, you don't need to go. Take a deep breath, change your name.

But consider that, although you were trying to express your own different reading of the situation, you may have been wrong.

Just don't open Mumsnet when you use the internet.

Saucery · 05/06/2017 17:15

Tbf, Khaleesi didn't say she wanted to delete all her posts, I mentioned that in case that was what she meant.
I assume deregistering removes your details from MN's records, so if you want no details left behind or not to receive irritating emails then best to do that.

What was the thread?

WellThisIsShit · 05/06/2017 17:26

I remember the feeling of being handed your arse on a plate, and feeling very upset. There's a need to get away from the upset and distance yourself from it all, that goes beyond simply closing the browser window.

Have no idea what thread it was, but have sympathy with feeling the wrath of mumsnet!

MayDupp · 05/06/2017 17:36

You don't have to leave. Just remember that none of these people know you, so don't take it personally. I've had my arse handed to me a few times, it's not nice but that's the nature of the site sometimes.
