Hi,
As I requested it on the forum[1], I would like to have my AUR account deleted. I already checked "Inactive" box, but I want to have it totally removed. My nickname is Ypnose
Thanks Y.

There is no normal way to delete user accounts at the moment. The motivation for this was the preservation of comments in discussions. I think there was some discussion recently about enabling account deletion by transferring comments to a ghost account.
Lukas, can you comment on this?
My own opinion is that it should always be possible to delete your own account from any service that you join. The absence of this option on the AUR is hopefully only temporary due to technical reasons.

There will be support for anonymous comments in the next AUR release, so this shouldn't be hard to implement.
Could you please file a feature request on the AUR bug tracker?

Hi Xyne,
First, thank you for your answer.

Ok, now I understand. I'm glad to see you're thinking about it.

I cannot agree more about that. Do you have a deadline for this option?
