Couple questions
1) Can we add a more obvious link to the forums on the front page since that's about the only link anyone is looking for. Something like a "Seek42 Forums" text link in larger font than the other links.
2) Why is some guy named MotoRider420 sending me PMs asking me to delete his account because the world is filled with assholes?
That would be the thread I expected existed. I tried finding "all posts" under his profile but it wasn't finding them (it did list 4 total posts). Thanks.

I posted this back to him on PM:

I found the thread that you weren't telling me about.
Also, I'll add that editing away all your posts and asking to have your account deleted because you lost an argument might be the biggest drama-bomb crybaby thing I've ever seen on these forums in 10 years.
I would like to request that you delete my account.
Long story short, I got into an argument with a few members who felt it neccessary to berate me, instead of using constructive criticism.
I had originally asked the moderator "Ryan" to delete my account, but instead he threatened me with the content of those arguments.
I do not appreciate being threatened by this moderator, and I would like to respectfully ask you to delete my account, to avoid any further issues.
A threat, no matter how small, can become a serious legal issue, however I am not the kind of asshole who just randomly calls the police to complain. I would like this to be solved in a civil manner, in this case I believe removing and/or banning my account is the best option.
I have already edited away my side of the argument in the original thread, to avoid any further trouble from those involved, and to avoid dragging new people in.
Thanks For Your Time

MotoRider420, Seek42 does not do constructive criticism without berating the person asking for the advice. We all were new and went through the same thing when we started posting. Now that your gaping butthurt is known to the world however. We probably won't in the future. This is the atmosphere of Seek42, we're a bunch of college age(or going to college) mostly males that as a group enjoy to fuck around. Its nothing against you personally mostly but its something we do. Sincerely go fuck yourself CC

I deleted his name and personal info from this thread (I looked it up earlier anyways). Here is our exchange prior to Chankster's message. I made him an offer he cannot refuse. I hope he refuses *GLEE*

So, in preperation to remove my account, I edited them so they wouldn't cause any more trouble. Then, I found that there isn't a "cancel account" button, which is odd, and I am now respectfully asking you to remove my account.
Or you can just "BAN" me, if that makes you feel better, I really don't care. Either way, I do not want to be a part of this forum anymore.
Please delete my account. I am asking nicely, and respectfully.

This is how normal conversations work, especially on the Internet. You can't run away from a losing argument on seek42. I'm mostly mad about the fact that you edited away your posts.
Now listen carefully, I'm not going to do anything to your account. You can choose not to use your account any more or you can choose to continue to bother me about it. If you send me any more messages asking to have your account deleted, I'll e-mail the original, unedited thread to Leach and cc: you. Choose wisely, Jim.
