Elthen Airis Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 Quite straightforward. Is there a way to delete accounts or is it a work in progress? P.S. I didn't find another thread with this question so i made a new one. Seigheart 1
dst Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 Accounts can't be deleted anymore. As far as I know, this will not change in the near future (or in the far away future..) Pothos and Seigheart 1 1
Pipstickz Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 The only alternative (and I do consider it a reasonable one) is to just not log in on the one you don't want and make an alt if it happens to be your main.
Elthen Airis Posted September 6, 2011 Author Report Posted September 6, 2011 Nah, actually i don't mind them sitting like that, but i wanted to change my e-mail adresses and they are used on different accounts, which is annoying. I guess my solution is to actually make a new e-mail and change through it. I find it really strange that Mur doesn't want accounts deleted. He usually has a reason for not doing a particular thing. What's the reason behind this one? If your account gets hijacked you can't really lose your account, but only what's in it... That's the only plus i can think of right now. On the other hand, all those unused accounts, aren't they just making it hard for the machine that's holding this whole game? That's unnecessary information that is kept in the servers. Seems a bit impractical.
lone wolf pup Posted September 6, 2011 Report Posted September 6, 2011 You can change their email address to something else, then take their email address on a different account. *whistles innocently*
Elthen Airis Posted September 6, 2011 Author Report Posted September 6, 2011 Well, you have to confirm the change on your e-mail, so you have to have the password of the e-mail or the e-mail has to be yours, obviously. Or in other words, you can't change it to "something else".
Burns Posted September 6, 2011 Report Posted September 6, 2011 All accounts are history in MD, deleting one of them is like deleting a bit of history. That's why you can't swipe them away just like that.
Pipstickz Posted September 6, 2011 Report Posted September 6, 2011 Just make a new email and change the old account to the new email? <<
Elthen Airis Posted September 6, 2011 Author Report Posted September 6, 2011 (edited) Yeah, that is another good reason, but what about alts, which have no real historical value to the server? Anyway, it won't be possible to make only alts being able to close their accounts, so there's no real solution to the matter, at least for now. Edit: I already changed my e-mail address, it's ok.
