As I open the app and get the Lvl 60 notification. I scroll through my profile and look at my old names. After looking at the fun games, some crazy forum threads, getting blocked by fizzer and a numerous other things I wonder, “When Should You Delete Your Account?”. It would help if fizzer answers this.

In the meanwhile, What do you think?

If your name is Pulsey, you should delete it at level 56

Unless you were permanently quitting, why would you delete your account?

That is indeed the question

never. it's so annoying to try to figure out who (deleted) was when you look at old game chats and wonder which stranger you drunkenly told your criminal history to

Why delete an account? It can never be taken back. Allow your memories to live :D

When you have 8 alts?

Pro tip: Change your name to (deleted) instead of deleting your account

Or Alexpunged, perhaps.

If you have the feeling that a game takes over your real life and you try but cannot take a break of it, then deleting an account can help you. It definitely increases the effort to come back significantly.

There have been several players who deleted their accounts to get back control over their real lifes and reported that they felt better afterwards.

But there also is quite a record of players that created new accounts after deleting their initial ones, so ...

Hey I resemble that remark. Came back after about 8 months of failing to get a life
On the plus side I became an orphan about a month after I rejoined, didn't expect that and the distraction has been mighty good timing.

Appreciate all the responses, certainly given me a perspective and won’t be deleting my account.

Also sorry to hear that Morg, hope you have a great time here

He is level 58...

Thnx for pointing out the obvious, I would still wish people to have a great time

Being level 58 doesn't neccecaraly mean you are having a great time.

It could be time well spent or time well, spent?

Hatter that was a brilliant pun thank you

+1 for Hatter

Deleting my account has been super helpful in a time where I was playing too much. Helped for at least a couple of months or so.

Who cares if you come back later and need to start from lvl1? Leveling up can be done quickly and a break can be useful, no matter how long.

When others identify you as an alt and you deny or don’t respond to that.
