• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

I never did quite understand why people ask for deletions instead of just leaving a forum account idle...

They think deleting it will also delete their posts and content.

Properly, it should, but since [H] doesn't fall under any real privacy data laws, they do not need to, but deleting accounts is just nice to do sometimes versus leaving open old accounts, which say later gets comprised and now someone is posting as you...

Best thing would be to change the password to some stupid long password, change the email address to some temp. one and then move on if a site wont delete the actual account.

This, and when you ask for a deletion, they change the username, so no real way to link it back.
