We're special f'r sure, sir! :lol:

But still this a kinda like everything Amiga - anyway, don't think it'll take another five years to reveal the new chief, will it?

The simple fact that this partly ridiculous and tedious discussion has been going on so long (too long for me) unobstructed and uncensored ensures me that we'll be able to enjoy our beloved a.org for years to come. I'm curious about what actually has happened, too - but as long as the site thrives, I can very well live with an absent owner. :)

As much as I don't follow Jens' logic and regret his decision, I don't think it's fair to deny his request for deletion and change policies after he's made his request. How about changing the account's name to something anonymous and disabling login for that account? That way the account wouldn't exist any more yet we wouldn't lose any posts.
Nothing in the privacy policy states/stated any right to demand deletion of all posts - nor would even German law suggest this.

Obviously anyone may request anything from whoever. As far as common sense goes, that passage implies a right to have one's account deleted although it doesn't exactly say so.

You're splitting hairs here and as stated before, that's not fair and pretty disappointing.
