How come accounts can't be deleted?

Maybe alex likes to use the "We have over XX,000 members" argument a lot?

Or maybe because threads would get confusing if a bunch of people's accounts were deleted.


Deleting accounts messes up the user tables and the thread paging.


Can you explain how and what it would look like if it did?

On other forums, their posts still be there after their membership was gone but they be marked as guests. Can't WP do the same. It would say "No longer a member" or you can't view their profile because their membership is gone and all their blogs are gone too and their sn's.

Well, thing is, guests can't post on WP.
