    [Forum] Allow users to delete themself?

    Is there any way to allow users to delete their own account within vBulletin 4.1.x?
    Or, anyone know a mod for this over at vbulletin.org?

      I have a lot of inactive users, and are about to do a serious reconstruction of the site.
      And I _know_ a lot of them wants to be deleted, and I would rely like not to do that job by my self.

      I do understand the potential problems, but.. I'm willing to go there anyway...

        Would it be possible to get the code (sql) that vBulletin uses to delete a user?
        In that way, I could make my own function for that...

            I know there is no VB4 mod to do this, I looked already. There is a very old 3.x mod (maybe 3.5?) but it won't work on VB4. I looked at the code, it seemed very complicated for a simple function.

                    will do some testing first, as this was posted in 2006 and no longer supported I am sure they will not mind if I fix it
