Issues deleting my account and removing posts

[Faith_1 3]

I have been trying to delete my account for a week now and I have faced several issues:

1. Switching google accounts does not switch the authentication. I switched from G1 to G2 email but whenever it wants to verify my account it still requires me to sign-in in the prompt of G1

2. Every time I tried to delete my account it sends me an email for confirmation, I click it and I get this black drop down notification "Verification is successful", but the account deletion in red still shows "Please confirm your account deletion", and it doesn't go away.

3. All I want is to delete my posts, but it seems I cannot do that without deleting my account. If that's really the case, can someone from the admins help me delete and nuke my account?

You have a limited time to delete posts or edit, after which they are locked.

 

You can certainly delete your account. Mod should be able to get your Account deleted. I have reported your post so they see it.

It is weird for me to say this, but thank you so much for reporting it. I also didn't know that I have a limited window, good to know for the future.

I do not know how every other sites operate, I tried Reddit and one of the things I really disliked was how people could ask a question get answers and then delete their post, horrible and hardly encourages long replies.

I understand, I'm one of those people. The thing is, I worry about how much people can find out about me through my online data. A lot of discrimination or much worse consequences can arise because someone doesn't like you or what you have to say.

 

I just like to keep my life private. If there was a place where I know my data cannot be sold or accessed then absolutely. But reddit does sell data, at the very least for ad purposes.

Everyone does and I am sure if someone went through all my posts you could put a sort of profile together but once posted well the interweb if forever.

I agree. It's just more effort to piece the profile together, it's not handed to anyone on a silver plate. This issue is more concerning for those who haven't gained stability yet or citizenship. Things cool down after you are stable, especially if you have dependents.

mods cannot delete an account, only ewok can do that.  
the link to close one's account has been broken for a while now.
