Wedding Woes

Can you tell me how to delete an account?

Hi, I've been lurking for a while and theres' something bat isht crazy going on. I know "Lrivard01" IRL. To be more accurate, I know the 2 girls posting under that account; neither of whom is the real Lrivard.
 
I have the log-in, I've been poking around, but I don't see an option to delete the account. What do I need to do?

PS- Obviously she/they were a pain in the A. Why wasn't she/weren't they blocked? I've seen bee bee's accuse you of blocking a bride for way less.

    Some people do have her on ignore.

    You have to email TK from the email account on file for that particular name.

    You've been lurking for awhile on an account that was made 3 days ago? Interesting.


    ETA: Wait, i think I get it.  If you have the login info for that account, why don't you just change the password for the people who aren't her can't log in?

    Does the e-mail need to say anything specific?

    How long does this take?

    I appreciate it the help, thank you!

    Well, being two people would certainly explain how she's like 21 and has eleventy careers and had cancer 45 times or whatever.

    Something along the lines of "Please delete my account"

    I think it usually is deleted within 24 hours, but FYI it doesn't get rid of their old posts.

    Can you really get someone else's account deleted just because they're a pain? I mean I'm no fan of lrivard, but she/they isn't/aren't breaking any of the terms of service. Using their login to have their account deleted just seems shady.

    I have her crazyass blocked.

    WTF? What do you mean? There are two people posting in the account that was made by the original and you have the log in why? This is fishy, yo.

    Yeah, it is, I'm like 99% sure this is lrivard recreating herself and talking her old name down so she can start over, but I could be wrong.

    Also, does she think blocking = cancelling the account? It just means that sometimes, when the Knot is very still and we hold our breaths just right, we'll stop seeing that person's posts.

    I am uncomfortable with sharing so much info, but It would be best if I explain.

    I started the Lrivard account. I'm not a stranger trying to get an annoying person deleted. These 2 are my former college roommates. We did not get along ( I was a Junior, they were freshmen at the time), I moved out after a semester. We don't have contact. They also stole my credit cards and tried to open loans in my name. This has been going on for 3 years.

    I noticed that someone was posting in my name a few months ago. I lurked for a while; then I opened this account a few days ago so that I could apologise and warn you all about the Identity theft risk.

    They are using real events from my life. They're just being really obnoxious about it (I did have cancer 3 times, melanoma, thyroid, and mucopiedal carcinoma, but I'd rather forget about it). I'm not sure where they are getting more current info. It really bothers me to have all that out there, the Asperger's and H's hand (he doesn't drink Pepsi. I don't know what that's about). I'm not really sure what to do about all this. It's not criminal, it's just creepy. I don't want to get dragged into their playtime world. I just want the account gone.

    How easy did you make your password that they were able to hack your knot account? This should teach you some internet safety lessons.
    image
  • edited December 2011
    Change the password so they can't get in. It's that simple. Then, you can request the account be deleted, and no matter how long that takes, they won't be able to get in because you've changed the password.

    The playing with my identity has gone on for 3 years. They used my credit  cards to order porn and have it sent to me while I was working for our Christian College. I get weird harassing letters, late night phone calls, vandalism. They've done other stuff in my name. The police have even interviewed me because they gave my name to a tip-line. They sent threats in my name to a local church.

    I started a wedding website, they must have gotten the link from a mutual friend, because then this started happening. They put painful, embarrassing things here, in a way that made you respond kind of hatefully (I mean, I get it, it was really obnoxious, and You don't seem to behave that way toward rational people). When I read it it's hard not to feel like I'm really being attacked.

    I'm sorry you think this is some play being made. Think whatever the hell you want. I don't care about the old posts, don't you save everything extra-ridiculous anyway? But just please be careful about the theft. You all seem smart enough to not leave a trail for them to follow. Keep it up.

    So... do you ever do anything in retaliation for their harassment, other than explain it to people on message boards?

    So why haven't you just pressed charges for identity theft and stalking?

    Sweetie if this were real (which I'm like 99.9% sure it's not) you need to file charges. Stealing a credit card = against the law

    Sending your name in on a tip line as a joke = against the law and super special place in hell for taking them away from doing actual police work

    I'd put a big old hold on my credit and consider moving to a different part of the US and staying offline, since apparently nothing else seems to work.

    And - if someone consistently fcks with you like this for 3 years? They have mental problems.

    I mentioned the Pepsi because it's this big ongoing thing you would relate to. It embarrasses me because they kept posting about counseling afterward. I would never have trusted fake me to be any sort of counselor if I had been that stupid and manipulative.

    Actually, you know what embarrasses me more? There was a really insensitive reply to a female soldier. And the drunk/abusive BIL last week. Because those were real people with real problems who got stupid advice. I hope they don't take that to heart.
