As far as I know, that isn’t possible. For some reason, WordPress doesn’t allow you to delete your account. Which I think is ridiculous. They should at least give you fair warning before you sign up. Anyway: The best you can do is delete your posts.
I don’t know why you want it gone, but to put it in perspective, you’re not alone in maybe having put something out there that you wish you could take back. It’s a fact of modern life.
i swore I contacted the admin before and they did nothing. i used to not have an account on here. i used to lurk and read posts. now I’m interacting and on here all the time now.
I feel your pain. I’m a long time lurker, started commenting a bit, now back to lurking. There is something toxic about this place, at least in its current form. To answer your question, your posts can be deleted by you or the admin, but as far as I know there is no global command to delete all your comments on WordPress. That’s why some users get banned and their posts disappear, but their comments remain spread throughout the site. If it’s very important to you, maybe you can contact the OP of each thread you’ve commented in, because they have the power to delete your comments.
I’d still visit even if I didn’t have an account. I just don’t want the account anymore. Has nothing to do with posts or comments. I always end up deleting all my posts at some point anyway. Like a purge. I understand comments on here are here to stay, so I am careful. Most websites allow you to edit and remove. I don’t mind the difference here.

I’ve heard that some people have deleted their account here (which removes all their posts also) so there should be a way.
Ask the administrator of this site. Only he knows

I guess you have to delete your posts. I spent hours trying to delete my account before and came up with nothing

Maybe if you just keep posting p*rn they will get so fed up with you that they ban you for life. Ironic.
i’ll just break all the rules. thank you for your comments.
Is the point deleting all your posts? Replies as well? why not just stop visiting?
