I am moving next week to Edmonton, Alberta with my brother and want to delete my account. I need some time away. How do I delete my account for good...?

Assumedly you want to delete your account due to privacy concerns, which is strange since you have only ever posted under a pseudonym. That being the case, why post so openly with information that can identify you?

dude, you've posted about 10 times in 2 years, what's the problem?

I guess you could just not post and fade. I don't know if a PM to Simon would help?

My brother and I will be sharing the computer. He is a strong jw and I don't want him to find out. I am not ready at the moment to have a major issue with my family.

You've posted information to a public forum, it cannot be removed.
Even if a mod here with access to the database decided to scrub every post made by your account. All the people quoting you would still exist.
Even if every post you made and every reference to every post you made was removed from this website, everything you posted would still be viewable via the wayback machine, google caches and various other internet archives. And there's literally nothing anyone here can do about it.

Ontario_guy, as long as you never visit the website on your brother's pc how is your brother ever going to know you're a member of this board?

Well then what you want to do is clear your history, cookies, saved passwords, saved searches, saved form information and cache files.
You should probably also check your downloads folder and make sure you didn't accidentally save a link on this site instead of opening it.
And you'll need to clear your recycle bin after that's all done.
If you can tell us what browser you are using we can help you clear it out.

OK thanks. I have no idea about this stuff. Guess that's why I do kitchen renos for a living lol.

just delete the url from your memory and no one will know. Go to internet tools and delete browser history. No one will know.
