I never can understand why some people like to make a dramatic point of posting "How do I delete my account". Are they expecting a flurry of well-wishers to persuade them to stay? Or are they fearing an overwhelming and irresistable compulsion to return later?

Surely, if a Metropoller no longer wishes to participate then they simply delete it from their "favourites" or the desktop icon if that is their method of entry. Either way, just don't log in again. It's not as though Metropol will suddenly auto-load one day unexpectedly!

On a seperate note:

Surely the whole point of PMs are that they are private, and not intended to bore other board members needlessly.

Hi Wells. Sorry about the delay in replying. This is how my weekend in Swansea went.

Friday 7 September I left Bath just before 7:30 am. Enjoyed a pleasant hitch-free train journey from Bath Spa to Swansea, with one quick change at Newport. I could tell you the train numbers if you really want them. Once there I walked to where I had booked to stay for three nights, a guest house (it actually calls itself a hotel) on the sea front. I had a sea view.

[POINTLESS DRIVEL REMOVED BY JAMEZ]

I'll tell you about Sunday and Monday tomorrow as I'm tired now and want to go to bed.

Tumble Tower.
I don't pay any attention to TVF these days, but from what I can tell this bloke is:

35 years old (36 on 30 Sept)
Single
Visits museums and childrens water parks by himself
Is a trainspotter/anorak
Invents complicated and completely useless TV channel codes


Therefore, I can only come to the conclusion that Tumble Tower is the real life version of...

Very good Jamez - but you didn't need to quote his entire diary entry again! :o

EDIT: Thank you Jamez! It was wasting space!

Given the previous post(s) about him, possibly, being a wind-up, I wonder if that's who the character's based on?

No Stuart, I was looking for a way to delete the acount to be unexpected after Hyma's request, also I never ment to post that on the board it was ment to be a PM for Hyma.

Yet you appear to have singularly failed, thus far, to edit the post which you say should have been a PM, to replace the current text with something along the lines of "Sorry - Posted in error - Please ignore".

And even so, it was still a request to have your account removed. Why don't you just cease posting?

I think Nick's suggestion was better than what the edited post became:
