    Which is why anyone who’s ever helped on reddit should’ve sucked it up and FullDeleteSuited their account.

    I lost so much, but did it anyway.

    Then again I’ll be sucking it up and going back soon for anime and media discussions soon. Unfortunately there’s nowhere populated enough.

      They stored all the edits, from before the API changes. They can and have undeleted entire accounts. I agree that deleting the account would be nice, but they acted in bad faith from the Digg migration that I saw. I don’t believe that deleting the accounts worked, cause I did and I can find my old posts again.
