FYI I emailed the bump today and respectfully asked to have images of my kid removed. I provided links because there weren't that many I couldn't delete myself. I expressed that ultimately I'd like my account deactivated and content removed. They say they already deleted the images and will honor my request to remove all content and I should see that happen by late tonight.
Thanks for this info. As soon as I'm done with this migration, I'm doing the same.

SpinsOffResonance brought up a good point over on TB. Things will eventually settle down both there and here, but how will we ever get new members here on PB? This isn't TB that will always have new people passing through. Eventually, there will be people there with no idea any of this ever happened and the community will be bumping again (or maybe not, The Nest never recovered from their exodus).

It looks like TB is now genuinely honoring deletion requests. I'm ready to do this but I want to make sure this is indeed our permanent new home before I request deletion. I'm around for the relationships / friendships I've built, so I'll go where you all go.

I am undecided about requesting deletion because of what sstwinklinglites mentions above. If/when I have another child I'd like to be able to join my BMB but PB won't ever have new people joining their community.

This is a good point. However, even before the fiasco, I didn't think I wound join a new BMB. I don't think I have the patience to weed out all the crazy again. Figured I could just bug you ladies ?.
I suppose if going back is something we ever want we can just open a new acct.
As long as you are not banned, you can always request deletion and create a new account later. That's why I was saying maybe folks shouldn't attempt a ban. You never know if in 3 years you have another kid and want to go there instead of here.

I am here because I haven't been there in months, went back and saw chaos. Just spent the last few days trying to catch up and figure out what happened. Whoa!
I'm a little confused. I just want my content deleteted. I want to be able to go back and lurk. Do I email to request that? Is that even an option?
I know some users requested their content be deleted but account remain active. Also remember you can always lurk without an account. You only need an account if you want to post.

I requested account and content deletion yesterday and still haven't heard anything back. As a matter of fact, I'm going to take a screen shot of my request in case I end up having to bitch them out about this.
If I ever end up going back, I'll open a new account.
I just requested that my content be deleted. This whole situation has just made me more weary of putting information online and really my only interest is in keeping in contact with you ladies.
I requested a account deletion yesterday and it was done last night. My worry was leaving my pictures up and having TB change their policy on account deletion. I can always make a new account.

They deleted all my content, but my account is still there. They just reset it, so it looks like I'm a noob and says I can't post until I've been around for a few days. I guess I'm ok with this, even though it's not what I asked for. I will be going and deleting my avatar and siggy though.

So, I just went on to try to delete my avatar and siggy and all that, and when I would try to it would give me an error saying that that stuff no longer exists... sooo... maybe they did delete everything and it just takes a while to take effect? I'll check again tomorrow.
