"Delete Account" Needs to be Changed

1,147 Toast  7.4 years ago

So I've noticed that when a user deletes his/her account that not only is access to his/her account lost, but also all creations they have made! It's like an artist burning all his paintings since he doesn't want to be a painter anymore! I am suggesting that if a user deletes their account, or is banned, that their creations still are accessible, but not their account. (Unless the creation is incriminating.) What's your opinion?

    You're right. I was half asleep when I wrote that anyway @PhantomBladeCorp

    @Toast Well, I regret deleting my old account. But I can't go back in time, can I?
    You shan't be embarrassed, though. I know some people have acknowledged my absence in the few months when I didn't have an account.

    Glad someone sees it the same way as me! I'm a bit embarrassed to admit this but I was actually thinking about your old account when I uploaded this. I didn't know that you were @PhantomBladeCorp .

    That actually sounds awesome. I really miss my old creations (which I am slowly reuploading in redefined quality)

    Please make it happen! @AndrewGarrison @WeeBabySeamus

    Me too but i wasn't able to download it. Even if you could download it you wouldn't be able to download it unless it is favorited before they quite. @MechWARRIOR57

    I'm not sure that's possible. From what I've tried there is no way. Which is is why I think things need to change. @MechWARRIOR57

    Sometimes people don't think so clearly when they are angry. I don't think they don't fully consider what will be lost. I'm not saying they shouldn't be able to delete their account I'm just saying their creations shouldn't be lost also @Ctracerx2

    @Toast wow great analogy, there should be an option to delete all creations or just account.

    I understand, but some truly wonderful creations have been lost because a user deleted their account. Maybe if a user has a silver account or higher their creations will be saved. Most websites don't even allow users to delete their account! @Tully2001
