You might be brilliant, but if you are a jerk- who cares.

    Your posts are part of the forum's historical record; and, AFAIK, an account is necessary to document authorship. So I doubt that it's possible to delete the account entirely, although you might be able to get the moderators to disable it.

    Some forums would keep your name but your account would say "guest" and you wouldn't log in anymore.

    Phil is correct in that we need to keep the user display name available for all of posts the member has created. Any moderator can inactivate an account. The member profile information remains in the database after the account is inactivated.
