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.
This just started happening after the outage. It has nothing to do with disabled subs, if it did we'd have seen it before.
It is blatantly obvious that this is intentional.
Puttitout, or whoever took over, is preserving evidence is the the simplest explanation that makes the most sense. See Occam's Razor.
