Unfortunately, based on my understanding of what the moderators have said, that isn't possible.

You can only deactivate a profile, not permanently delete. It's a records-keeping thing.

You can deactivate and open another profile, but I don't know if you can do so using the same email address.

It looks more like a "data mining thing". Criminals especially spammers throughout the net create all kinds of websites in the hope that you will sign up to them for the porposes of "mining" your details. (collecting them for further use, usually criminal)

Of course some criminal sites will make it look like they really have deleted your details when really they have just copied them somewhere else, others simply wont bother providing a "privacy statement" and once you have signed up it is almost too late to do anything about it (but not quite)as there are then no options to do anything about it such is the case in this site.

Mingle2 and plenty of other semi legal sites including some large corporations (such as AOL) do it a little bit differently to avoid prosecution as descibed below.

These types of sites will offer a privacy policy and genuinely do as the often "DELIBERATELY well hidden and tedious" privacy policys state (so cant be prosecuted for misrepresntation) but it will be deliberately done in such a way that most people wont bother to read it so tricking people to surrender their details forever which can then be used for whatever porpose the policys state (usually delivering spam which has been legalised by the fact you probably didnt bother to read the policy. This tactic is especially prevelant amongst jewish run enterprises (although not all jews are dishonest, the ones which are, are very cunning) and the faces of some of the mods on here look jewish as well.

Such sites provide fake stupid reasons for doing this like "in case you want to come back". which is BULLPOO
IF ANYONE WITH HALF A BRAIN WANTED TO COME BACK THEY CAN ANY WAY JUST BY CREATING A FRESH ACCOUNT LIKE THEY DID THE FIRST TIME THEY CAME ON (i some times wonder if the CIA or MI5 or rothchilds are behind running all this data mining projects lol)

There are several ways to defeat this however
1 bomb the server farms (NOT RECOMENDED as this is likely to cost you the rest of your life either in jail or execution and will make you as bad as they are)
2 Delete EVERYTHING YOU POSSIBLY CAN (like pictures, and all the other general waffle and change that which you cant on your profile first (you might notice that i am 99 years old and over 7foot tall with a london post code of a place ive never been to ::))) and when you have done all that change your email address to that of either a fake one or that of someone you dont carefor depending on the situation, Now any one with half a brain will realise that this will fill up their servers with useless information and prevent them from reissuing user names and the like (which probably doesnt bother them too much) but better still (if you dont just deliberately change the password to one which you will forget) you can also pass on the loggon details to some one else less scrupulous who will reuse the account to annoy (troll) mingle2 and put other people off using it as well (such as posting the new account details on trolling sites for intsance) Word of warning DONT do this unlees you know what you are doing).
If enough people do this it will force the admins to reconsider their policies.
If they read this comment i have posted it may make them also reconsider before the trolls spoil this site

I accept that this is a free site and it needs to make money from advertising to keep running but it doest have to trick people out of their privacy to do it when it already uses ads in the pages themselves

Let me explain something to you, so that you understand. We offer the deactivate option, simply because the information is always in the data base.

Any site which "deletes" a member, only hides the profile from view. The sign up information is still there. Most states require that information to be kept on record. The reason? Just like the Craigslist killer.

So you can rant if you like, and i can hide your profile if you prefer, but the bottom line is, Mingle2 has the guidelines in the terms of use. The same terms of use you agreed to, upon joining. Any site who does not follow the state mandates are opening themselves up to huge lawsuits.

I do hope this answers your rant, and if you need anything further, feel free to email me.

Regards,
Mark - Mingle2 administrator

Hi malehammer80,
You can deactivate your account, and create a new profile, however, you will need an alternate email address in order to do so.

This is the first site i've been on that doesn't allow me to delete my account, deactivate and delete are NOT the same. Even facebook allows you to delete your account now...they had to add that option because of Europe's "Right-to-be-forgotten" law...and they have a HUGE market in Europe, Because this site does have international members, i wonder if in fact it is against the law not to have this option..but i'm not an attorney, but maybe a delete account option is
something you should look into adding.
