Is it really impossible to leave Gransnet offcially?

That's okay. You seem to believe you have all the answers. I know I haven't yet found all the questions. It must feel good.

the only sleazy underworld on GN was in The Argy Bargy Bar ? Soop was a regular! As was Marydoll two of the nicest people on GN btw.Perhaps we need more of it, it attracts the better sort of person.
The Alphabet Bar has taken over, and happy hour is on at the moment over there should anyone fancy a ?

You stated this about yourself :-

' I try not to be reduced to the squalor of laughing at others expense.'

You are the gift that keeps on giving.

This is now turning into a spat so you keep digging, you are doing so on more than one thread to more than one poster so at least I am in good company.

I will stick with my ' generalisation' not attacking individual posters on this thread but I reserve the right to reply to your personal posts which is a different thing.

Oh she’s just doing it to wind you up.

Surely it isn’t possible for anyone to have a vision of themselves that is so far from the truth.

Is it?

You were explaining, in detail the different types of 'leaver' POGS and giving your opinion about them. Almost like a scientific experiment. I just said it as I found it.

Eglantine
Yes

You haven't been paying attention, have you? ?

?

Short answer to OP - no it is not impossible.
Longer answer - it is perfectly straightforward as numerous posters have explained.

Next?

MawB It is possible to close your account. It is not possible to have all your postings deleted, at least not automatically. I am not sure how GN would respond to a special request.

Having got this wrong earlier on, I am out of here!

OP asked how to delete her account-ie deregister, not how to delete all her posts over the years.
She was a member under at least two other names way before I joined so I am thinking she must have learned to navigate the system to change her name or leave and rejoin. The suggestion that it is impossible and somehow breaches anybody's human rights is disingenuous not to say melodramatic.
It's not like cancelling the gym or your Amazon Prime account - now that's really hard
So from the "radio silence" I feel it is not unreasonable to assume OP has followed all the instructions offered - job done?

So GG3 has received the answer to the question and achieved what she wanted, and we can leave the thread now?

You hit a nerve there Maw I accidentally ticked the Amazon Prime box on the French site. Apparently I now have to download a retraction form and post it to them Grrrrrr

It is so easy to join Amazon Prime by mistake but most people must have found out how to delete it now as so many people seem to join and wish they hadn't.

Is that like Gransnet?

Cunco, if you have a REALLY good reason, Gransnet will delete your posts. I don't know what the REALLY good reasons are, but I assume if someone is in danger of being identified and faces domestic violence etc as a result, that would count.

I cancelled my gym membership with no problem at all - go me!

OP asked how to delete her account-ie deregister, not how to delete all her posts over the years.

Here we go again with the made-up truths. Yes, Jura did ask how to delete her account - but how do other posters suddenly become the interpreter of what she meant? You do not know!

She was a member under at least two other names way before I joined so I am thinking she must have learned to navigate the system to change her name or leave and rejoin.

And here comes the deliberate destruction of someone on the forum. I will tell you now that when she left before, GNHQ, who she contacted because she didn't know how to do it first encouraged her to stay and the deleted the account for her. So she still had no knowledge of how easy it is to do. But you, of course, MawB feel that making it up as you go along is equal to the truth especially, it seems, if you can denigrate someone in the process.

It may sound "disingenuous not to say melodramatic" for someone else to see not being able to leave as a breach of human rights, but why should everyone see the world as you do or otherwise be on the receiving end of your disapproval?

It's all about finding someone to attack isn't it.

So GG3 has received the answer to the question and achieved what she wanted, and we can leave the thread now?

???

Hammering on.

You keep doing that Baggs if it's making you happy.

Oh, and perhaps you could tell me when MawB became the interpreter of other GN members words. I missed that.

Surely those who leave a forum, do so without making a big thing of it ?

Correction - "So GG3 the answer to the question and achieved what she wanted, and we can leave the thread now?" should have read "Jura has received ..... etc"

"We can all leave the thread now" still stands. The original question has been answered, and the rest is just hot air.

Jura didn't make "a big thing of it" EllanVannin" she asked a question because she didn't know the answer. I rather think it's because others had her in their sights that it seems like a "big thing".

Elegran do you really need to wait for the others? Just leave the thread if that's what you want to do or are you now telling us to do that?
