How to quit EF membership ?

Hello,

I'd like to opt-out yet could not find how to do it.

Could you let me know how to do it or alternatively, terminate my membership directly ?

Thanks,

Arkin

I would suggest using the "contact us" option at the botton right hand corner of any of the pages and ask them to delete your account.

Re: How to quit EF membership ?

It's difficult to delete an account due to the way forum software works these days:

Each account has an ID, and each forum post is associated with that ID in order to record who was the original author and stuff like that. Deleting your ID would simply mean that the author for your comments is no longer known.

Even more, nowadays databases are designed in order to enforce that referential integrity (you can't delete actually data if it's tied-up as a reference in other database tables).

Probably you want to go to http://www.englishforum.ch/profile.php?do=editoptions and disable the email notifications for your account. That should do the trick.

You can't automatically delete your account, the admin has to spend his time doing it manually.

What you do is simply stop coming here.

Why do you want terminate your registration anyway?

There's no reason why you should say, but it does beg the question "Why?". Just curious.
