May I please close my DU account (and be banned) ?
This discussion thread was locked by EarlG (a host of the DU Community Help forum).
I really don't feel like I belong here.
Please, DU, this is not a plea for "please stay" replies or sympathy. If anything, it is a plea for "Don't let the door hit you..."
Thank you Admins,

Might you want to take some time off? You've been here since 2016. 
Past similar threads suggest messaging EarlG directly.
I've never seen a definitive answer or reply from admins though, so who knows for sure.
There should be a clear way to delete one's account and all comments if the need or desire arises, especially now with the incoming fascist regime threatening retribution to it's adversaries. Or if one just decides to rage quit, to each their own, the reason shouldn't matter.
It would be nice if the issue were clearly and definitively addressed one day, as this topic has come up here several times before. If it has ever been properly responded to directly by admins, I have missed that, and would appreciate a link directing me to the official answer.
Barring a thorough removal of your account and content by admins, you could always try self-sabotage by violating the TOS, though I wouldn't recommend that. Better would be to reset your password to something impossible to remember, then forget it. Of course that still leaves your account and all content in place for public view, and the possibility that it may someday fall into the hands of bad actors, or otherwise be used against you. I can't imagine the effort it would take to try deleting each post individually, especially with a high-post account.
Until and unless a self-removal option is provided by DU admins, this question will continue to arise.
Whatever you decide to do, good luck!
