Why do people make a big deal on GAG when you delete your account?

Like, it's my choice, right? Sometimes the trolling comments add up, and I just want to start afresh

You have to remember that this place is extremely toxic due to the kind of people on here. Many give nonsense answers or have nonsense questions. People are here for reasons OTHER than actually helping and contributing. Somebody with who I happened to form a Godly and sisterly relationship with decided to leave the site today and wanted to tell me how happy she was that we met and how much I helped her with things. But I say that is by the grace of God that I was able to do so by his will and strength. Not me.

And your right. It is your choice to stay or to leave. You don't owe any explaining why. Others may miss you because you are their friend or they consider you as one of the few they can be happy around and it makes this place a little bit more bearable to be on. Otherwise, I think a lot of people, me included wouldn't stay and I made it very clear of the many reasons why I wouldn't and shouldn't. However, it is people like the user who thanked me is why I show up almost every day: to HELP people. I've learned a lot being here.

Another reason is to avoid toxic people and stalkers, people who want to cause you harm. And as somebody already says. They delete their account just to make multiple illegal accounts to harass, bully and even target the user they want to harm. I am sadly very targeted on this site. Plenty of times I blocked users who kept making many more accounts from being with their username to going anonymous. Yet if they are blocked how come I keep finding their questions but they don't block me? They're saying I'm harassing them or they don't want me on their questions, but they don't block me. I have to either report or block them. Then spreading false rumors about me for other users to exploit and use. Thank God I am not here for those who want to make enemies of me, but people like the user who personally wanted to thank me.

To be honest, the user base is the problem. Not just people trolling. You have to make your expectation clear that this is a toxic place with toxic users. The problem with many users who ask questions lots of them are just as toxic and biased as the users who answer them. Both men and the women here are very toxic. But very few are actually worth getting to know. I think a lot of people come here without fully understanding what they are getting into.

And that a legitimate excuse but others use that to harass people or have contact with people that blocked them

[S-J-K]

wow what losers

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Right!

Why would you care if you're deleting, or even just resetting under a different username? "People" are because you have a pink username. Maybe they use FB too much and think this stuff is bound to really real world rules or something. My assumption is regardless of what the username says, 99.9% chance we'll never meet, good chance in that you're a bot to begin with, so it may as well be grey to me.

I come and go as I please. No one would know if you're going to or not unless you want to test for a reaction. The correct way to test for a reaction is not to ask someone how they would react, but simply see how they would.

That isn't just on you, many people get very hysterical online about things that don't matter... until a day or two have passed.

That usually tends to happen more when you're a female on here. Dudes will miss anything with a vagina. So maybe you gotta start identifying as a dude? 😂

[S-J-K]

No way bro. I'm proud of my gender

[S-J-K]

But yeah, that explains the freak-outs on this site. Random guys act like they own me or something

[Sonorous]

You can be proud but also change a course of action. Just depends on what outcome you want to happen.
