How to delete my CodeChef user name / account

well this fucking sucks!

I love CODECHEF. It has really helped me as a coder. But still the fact that CODECHEF doesn’t have a username changing option sucks.


P.S. I created my username as a joke but now i’m stuck with it. Not cool man . Not cool. Seriously add a username changing option man. Please.

Changing a database design it’s not that hard. You can create an special user nammed “user deleted” and link all posts and activity from deleted profiles to there.

Read more about foreign keys, and what to do on “on delete set 1569” (in this example “1569” is the ID of the special user.

I’m really ashamed at you. A programming tool made by people who doesn’t know how to delete profiles without break database design. You’re a shame for all programmers.

Click on your name, then choose Edit profile > privacy > and then at the bottom there is a link that says discontinue with you code chef, click it> and you get a page to discontinue your account, im not sure if it deletes the account but im gonna try it right now
