Please delete my account from your forum please.

Thank you.

Unless you have a good reason then your request won't be actioned, if you cannot provide one then simply stop using your account.

I'm taking up too much space on your SQL database.

lol...


Does this mean that THIS is not the account you want to keep, and you would rather use your other ID?

Why create the duplicate account anyway?

I think i forgot my password! So that would be both.

We have a password recovery method in place, use it. Having two or more accounts is playing with your ability to have any accounts on the site.

loumaag,
Are you sure the Lost Password page is working ?
Kind of hard to use it when you get a "Page Not Found" error.

If the page isn't working as of this post. Best way to do it now would be delete the account.
or email the webmaster of RadioReference.com Since the Lost Password Page isn't working.

I don't think you can USE IT. If you don't have access to that email address in that account user profile.
That forum user could have change Free/ISP email provider.

The RadioReference.com Forums - FAQ: General Forum Usage

There are actually 3 things to address from the above quote so:

1. The page works fine, I just tested it and indeed the necessary instruction was sent to my specified email address.
2. If the user is no longer using the email address associated with the account two things need to be pointed out:
   1. Users are supposed to keep the email address associated with their account current, not having a current email address is cause to have your account suspended; this should be obvious to anyone using this site.
   2. If you have not done this (kept your email address current) then contacting the webmaster, as explained on the trouble logging in page, is the right path to follow.
3. The links you provided are...well I don't know how to express this...old. You certainly did not follow any current links on our site to those pages, had you followed current help links, you would have ended up here.

Finally, as alluded to above, creating another account is NEVER the correct path, that is a sure way to attract the moderation staffs' attention and drawing our attetion to you in a negative way is never a good idea.

As a policy, we don't delete accounts.

1. The URL above doesn't work fine. You used a different URL on your test vs the link in the Forum FAQ.
http://forums.radioreference.com/app.../?action=reset
vs.
http://www.radioreference.com/apps/a.../?action=reset

2. I did follow the link provided by the forum main/every page. Look above near the top of the forum page in the blue area.
"User CP, FAQ, Members List, Calendar, New Posts," etc.

So the FAQ link is OLD and out dated info? ( When it's even linked to from the main forum page on every page).
Maybe that link you posted. Should be added to the FAQ page. If it's going be linked to from the forum.

There is indeed a broken Password reset link when you go to the Forums Home / FAQ and search for the word LOST you are brought to the page with the broken link.

[loumaag]

Well, I have been shown something. I will fire off a bug report on that. The FAQ link on the forums page really should not even be there. My mistake, I used the Help link at the top of the page.

Yea, that's a problem we need to fix... thanks reporters and Lou.
