Doesn't worry me. There's a surprising amount of people online who help out in cases.

If people specifically want their accounts erased from your board, surely the moral and ethical thing to do is to remove their accounts. Remember the question is, if people request their accounts are removed, not in the general course of tiding up your member lists.

Anyone else noticed you now have the option of taking yourself off spam lists, look at the bottom of spam mail, the option is there. Apparently a similar thing applies to any online membership list. This was news to myself and a number of other people, am actually following this one up as it may be of interest to the entire vBulletin community.

Am running this poll at a number of sites to get some raw figures before publishing results. Currently ... just checking a couple of other places ..... 75% yes they will delete accounts on one site, 100% on another site (whoa the thread ran into three pages of people relating bad stories in regards their accounts not being deleted at some site or other, admins reading PMs ... which actually has to be acknowledged on site under Oz law apparently, and other really non decent actions by site owners). Gee there's a lot of anger out there.

Lets try and keep this one above the flaming level folks, we probably all have personal stories of just plain stoopid admins. If you are going to give us the story of your expierance please don't mention site names or people's online usernames as this could quickly degenerate.

I'm finding this interesting, and am learning a lot about various US enforcement agencies at the same time, you US people really do have some scary folks in government.
