PM Legoburner.

May I ask why?

Probaly dosen't like his year of birth in his name?

We do not typically close accounts. . .if you just don't want to use it anymore, stop using it.

We can and will change the user name on an account under some circumstances (i.e. not too often), so if that's the issue please PM me and we can take care of it.

cos half my posts are crap and end up in me looking stupid

Oh man, if I could dredge up the posts I made when I started out on this site, I'd be mortified (sadly, lost my account after it changed hands long ago).

My philosophy is, if your newer posts show growth and increased maturity (intellectual and otherwise), it's a good thing and you shouldn't worry about your older posts.

It's not like older posts really matter that much anyways. Unless you say something _monumentally_ stupid (on another forum I saw one user who stated 'rape wasn't painful for women' and he was never allowed to live that down) it's what you're posting in the current topic that counts.

Does anyone on here go and read through all of someone's old posts before responding to a thread?

Haha not really...

I just post and talk and feth the past! haha.

Go back to your old posts and edit them to blank.

if you want to lose your account, just let it fade to oblivion.

ive changed most of them but i still look like a idiot

1)Then start making proper posts with punctuation etc.

For example:

"Ive changed most of them, but I still look like an idiot."

See what you wrote but with punctuation, It makes your posts alot easier to read and you will get more replies.

2)No silly posts.

For example:

Your "Lets make marines gak" thread. Avoid making threads like this and always post your threads in the right section.

3)Political, religious threads and threads debating sensitive issues such as WW2 threads.

Just avoid these threads unless you know what your talking about and dont mind being hated and insulted cause of your opinion.

normally i would use punctuation, but im on my notebook so my fingers hit about five keys at once

Get over it. So some of your older posts are dumb. So bloody what? I shudder everytime I find bad mistakes in my old posts.

Indeed. My first post ever on Dakka, many eons ago (2003?) was thread necromancy a couple of years old. I have since learned not to do this
Don't be concerned with your past posts, but DO try to improve in the future. For starters, capitalization and correct punctuation.

I still continue to post rubbish <----- "see! proof!"
