Account Deletion

Concerning this thread: http://www.habboxforum.com/showthrea...92#post7185892

I'm fairly certain it's illegal not to delete all the data related to their account if they request it.

They don't have to delete it but they have to delete email, ip as its something to do with data protection act

I don't understand how anyone can suffer an OCD about being online on a forum...

That's what I was thinking, there's probably some data they can keep (Maybe posts) but other stuff predominantly userdata is a requirement.

It's hardly a valid reason for the account to be deleted, I don't understand how anyone can suffer an OCD about being online on a forum...

This isn't a discussion of the legitimacy of the reason.

I can kind of understand were the guy is coming from. I know it's unlikely but what if someone on the forum was to post a load of crap as a child (Being idiotic) then became a politician, I know it's only a forum but it could create huge problems. For that reason and that reason only I somewhat regret registering to habboxforum.

P.s I don't want to be a politician but I've made some mistakes that I would hate to haunt me in the future if I ever became famous etc.

there's probably a clause in the terms and conditions somewhere saying its your own fault that the datas there

These laws were made blanketed for security reasons, I doubt a clause would cover it.

I'm just pointing out that it isn't Habbox's decision whether someone's allowed to have their userdata (And maybe posts?) removed.

I've never thought of this actually, but I kinda think what's here will always be stored on the internet somewhere
