Related: About this forumHow do I delete my account?
I don't really use DU anymore on account of greatly reducing my use of computer stuff overall, so I'd like to delete my account. I'd rather not just sign out and leave my account on the system as this presents a potential security risk in case of hacking or something like that. I went through all the account settings and couldn't find a delete button. Who do I have to talk to to have my account deleted?
Thanks.

Change your password to an impossibly difficult nonsense string and don't write it down

I don't know how you might delete it otherwise but if you have no posts there is literally nothing to see here.
Cheers!
