Leaving boards.

how do i delete all of my posts and threads?

I thought this was a discussion board but I was wrong. I don't agree with the moderators decisions so I no longer want to be part of the site.

How do I go about deleting my posts and threads before i delete my account?

Thank You

You can't.

Your posts and threads remain on the site. Site policy is not to delete accounts.

Simply change your account's email address to something nonsensical and then change your password to some random sequence of characters. This ensures you will no longer be able to access the site.

are you serious, there is no way to delete my account without going through an editing process

Yes. He is serious.
Once you start a thread and others comment in it, it is no longer just your thread.
Deleting comments from a thread at this point would break the flow of said thread.
This is why you cannot edit your comments after a certain length of time.

That's correct. We only advise the editing process so that yourself and no-one else can use your account. It's not necessary, as you can simply log out and stop using the site.

if you have an attitude problem then please don't take it out on me.

It costs nothing to be nice.

Indeed it doesn't. Which is what I was doing by informing you how boards works.
You however, lack the basics in civility when replying to my helpful comment.
