My theory is difficult to test but I want to believe that users unable to delete their accounts isn't from malicious intentions.

For those Phukers who have tried and failed at deleting their account; did you post or comment in disabled subverses?

My theory is that the deletion code can't run properly if you posted in subs that are now disabled.

Have no idea how a coder would fix that problem without reopening all the disabled subs.

oh damn, that might be it. I didnt think of that. They would have to put personal deletions over sub status, but I dont even know how they're doing that, or how subs get "turned back on" for that matter.

I had a random account I made over a year ago that I never used and was easily able to delete within seconds.

My main account is stuck in the global ban and after investaging I looked deep into that account's history and saw posts in disabled subs. That's how I came up with the theory.

I'm now almost 99% sure this is the problem.

Of course it's impossible to prove if we can post in disable subs and then try to delete.

I'm pretty sure Putt is to burnt out to care.

Blows a big fat dick not being able to delete your account.
