Seriously - I've had a look and can''t see how to do it either... I guess admin will be along soon.

Sorry you are going - why not just go invisible and stop the emails?

Account closure is something that needs to go through the Help Desk - they can be reached via the Contact Us button at the bottom of this page.

They can also change your account name.

If you have had any issues with the site - spam, abuse, etc., then I'm sure that they would like to hear about your experiences.

As has been said already, click log out, then clear your cookies and forget about it, if you're worried about receiving Ribnet emails which will make you feel all sentimental again then change the email address in the settings.

As the others have said it's really just a matter of not logging in. We don't delete old messages, but I have deactivated the account so it can no longer be used.

To avoid the possibility of this thread degenerating into a one sided guessing game played by insecure girly RIBnetters (), let me say this: passbhoy has passed on and I can vouch that his reasons, as explained to me, are valid and I respect them.

Man Down.
