Deactivating

[MissTerious]

If you deactivate your account can you reactivated it without permission from Editors?

[Redhelen72]

Yes, I was always under the impression you could not .

But I spoke to the Ed and she confirmed we just had to send them an email.

[davebro]

so the answer is NO

[pimplyteen]

Never understand why anyone would want to do so at all?

[naomi24]

There is no button you can press. You have to ask the Editor to reactivate your account.

[davebro]

to force yourself to take a break from AB & not be tempted to post was my reasoning in the past (you can still view of course)

[MissTerious]

Thanks Red. I will deactivate then for a while. Its a waste of time on here at the moment, but it's become a bad habit I want to shake at least for a few months. I'll miss a few people though . Including you of course. It'll be easier to do if I deactivate. Less temptation!

[Redhelen72]

Sorry I misread your questions LL.

No you need to contact the Ed's to get reinstated

[MissTerious]

Dave. Snap

[Redhelen72]

LL - I know - I came back because I missed a few people but I think maybe a longer break is needed.

I hope your house move works out for you xx

[pimplyteen]

Just don't log on, its that easy.

[davebro]

you are obviously much stronger willed than some of us pimply :-))

[pimplyteen]

You don't think theres another reason behind this kind of action?

[davebro]

not for me - what are you implying?

[MissTerious]

Thanks. See you soon.

[pastafreak]

Oh great...one less sensible person to chat to, and one less reason to even bother coming on here or to look in.

[gulliver1]

Sorry to see you go , you will be a sad loss to A.B Hope it was nothing That I said.

[roadman]

trivial drama i dont see it as a waste of time when i get help and advice but if you are here to talk to doris about her garden then maybe it is a waste of time for you

[Redhelen72]

Miss you - and I think I will follow as even 'safe threads' are being hijacked with the ignoring etc.

[pastafreak]

Unfortunately there will be no new members to take the place of those who leave.
I find this hard because there are days when I only "chat" to a few on here...along with one other site. :(

I don’t quite understand, just log off. Or maybe some abers want to be missed, ‘ haven’t seen **** for a while ? :-)
