So you just want the usertitle and post count to be removed?

I want the entire entry removed - usertitle, user "status" ('banned'), post-count, and date-of-registering.

I do not wish to have to explain why I was banned. Do you think I'd be believed if I said the banning was a spiteful reaction to my deleting all my posts?

This is the entry I want removed. I've here "wrapped" it to avoid distortion. The "un-wrapped" image is here

- which I consider to be highly defamatory, as I have deleted all my posts from that forum, there is no explanation for the banning, and there is no direct link back to me to ask for an explanation.

The entry is accessible to anybody with the stamina - or the "tip-off" - to search.

You cannot delete your own account, no. Only an administrator can.

So if an administrator refuses a polite request to delete an account, even after the account-holder has deleted all their posts, is that administrator being vindictive? I guess a kinder explanation would be that the administrator was ignorant of their ability to delete.

In the face of continued refusal to delete, is anybody aware of legal action being taken?

I'm deadly serious about this, as there is high potential for defamation to occur if the account remains. The country concerned is Western Australia, and the forum in question is administered from within the same territory.

G'day, folks smile

My first post smile

I guess this could be called a bug; I certainly find it 'bug-gy'.

Is it possible for a user to remove their own entry from the User list? One can register, but seemingly not un-register. One can delete one's post, but one cannot disappear from the User list

I've noticed this inability on other installations, such as pHpBB, and vBulletin, so perhaps it's a generic deficiency. Is a Bulletin Board so different from, say, a Yahoogroup, where one can delete one's posts and uploads, unsubscribe, and hence 'disappear' completely?

All the best.
