It's 2 years now and Atcoder, Codechef are having this option. Topcoder also allows through email (they deleted within 10 hours of my email). Why not Codeforces ?

Because Mike knows, once a codeforcer always a codeforcer :)
I will rather delete my life than my codeforces account
At least you have an option to delete your life
This motivation will disappear after you get your first job.
Interesting. Why?
Because you won't get enough time.
So the amount of time you have is somehow related to motivation? Interesting.
I sent you message. Previously I was not able to reply before 10 minutes.
-is-this-fft- I hope you haven't used blocking people below some rating feature. I wanted to discuss this with you. I can resend you incase of you have blocked.
Well, my job has to be super interesting then to be able to replace the motivation of cp.But lack of time won't be able to do that
Why did you started with CP ? Please tell story behind it.
Because I felt being a programmer is cool + I felt it like a sport when I watched icpc world finals videos in YouTube which motivated me a lot
Why you feel sports programming is cool ?
I am sure you didn't jumped to world final videos straight away. You aren't telling the initial most motivation.
I learnt to code in my high schools,then I used to create problems by my own and solve them.I didn’t even know at that time that cp or codeforces existed.But I felt cool when I used to solve mathematical equations of theory of relativity or other formulas using code.My teacher told me that programming contests are held in university.Then I searched youtube
Imagine you have many great blogs and your friend trolled you by testing the button
deleteI imagine such a feature would require confirmation with your password, so even if you leave the computer open your friend won't be able to troll you like this.
I suppose it would be like facebook. Option to recover deleted account within a month of deletion.
Imagine you have many great blogs but after being under depressing of jobs, works, etc and having a crazy idea of deleting it forever. It is your choice but someone else might still find the blog useful. I suppose if there is such
deletionfeature then at least it could keep the blogs or maybe some drafts, or at least blogs with many upvotes.How I would implement it: leave all comments and blogs intact, but display "deleted user" as the poster. Don't allow to browse other comments by that user, make all deleted users indistinguishable. Contests are a bit harder but probably also doable in a similar way.
This is very important point I think for maintaining privacy. I have messaged imachug. He also would be having creative ideas in such things.
Interesting. If it is implemented I wonder will the color name will be white out or having strike through.
But I wonder about two things:
The drafts: What if all blogs are stored in drafted when he decided to delete that account, and what if he never tried publish such a great blog he wrioe in draft.
The ratings: What if one decide to delete the account when the system test is going on, and what if he submit something at last minute and the system test are queue-ing it.
I suggest to not actually delete anything (at least not for a while after the deleting action); just mark as deleted and never show to the users.
Imagine the contest have to re-calculate the rank all over again in the contest when a competitor on high rank deletes his account.
Same problem is for codechef and atcoder. But they do it. Topcoder also allows deleting.
Replace that competitor by Anonymous. No need to re-calculate.
Because Codeforces is family. And you don't delete your family.
You don't delete a whole Codeforces by just deleting your account
Are you Dominic Toretto?
What is the advantage of deleting accounts?
Did you read all comments above ?
