Set the mail address to <something>@example.com (making password recovery impossible) and then set the password to some long random string that you forget afterwards (making login impossible). This will cut you off from the accounts.

Real deletion of the accounts isn't possible for legal (in case you bought anything they'll have to retain that information for tax purposes) and technical (forum software referencing the account) reasons.

Not a bug.

Might want to see this thread: viewtopic.php?f=40&t=61314&hilit=privacy#p779448 This is a discussion on the EU's GDPR regulations that went into effect earlier this year.

That said, this is a technical support forum, and I think the issue you have is more customer service related. You might try contacting jorb via PM and discussing what or why exactly you want an account removed.
