wow so agressive.. chill out please.. perhaps head off to kmart and spend some money on a new dress

In all seriousness please turn off your profile so it wont be viewed and turn off subscriptions then you will no longer recieve anything and your profile will be inviewable to anybody. Not that it matters as you have no info to view anyhow.

Hey Kirsto.

To unsubscribe from the mailing list, simply click here:

http://www.samesame.com.au/p/newsletter/

Then to cancel your subscription, go to Me > My Profile > Edit Your Profile and untick the box that says "Show My Profile". Once that's been done, simply log out of SS and you can never return or get emails from us.

thx.

There needs to be a way to delete personal information from off the site when you want your profile removed. It does not seem possible to delete the email address and other information, and the subscription field keeps coming back on as checked.

Doesn't work. You can log back in again, and then you find that the contact/search options are still checked on.

Three months later and I'm still getting spammed by SameSame and you still can't delete your account.

Just change your email to one of the free random generated email addresses that work for like 24 hours so that you can click the change link then forget about it.

It doesn't work. I've changed the email twice, the second time to a temp account. I got an advisory email sent onto that temp account, however SameSame still spams the original email associated with the account with the SS Weekly and other junk.

Four months and counting...

My Nana asked me to write a post telling you to stop fucking swearing at the admin staff because they are all busy as lizards drinking and cannot drop everything just to delete your profile.
She said that shit takes time... be patient and get back on your meds.

Clearly... is not the only person having this issue
I want to delete my account too...

It is really frustrating that there is NO technical support.
I totally agree with her, people should have a right to their privacy and they should also be able to change their profile at thier own will.

I cant even update my profile, it comes up with some ridiculous page which says "thats so gay- this page doesnt exist anymore"

IT IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING

Read up guys, there are AMPLE people who need help with this... and so much for the people saying it will be fixed ASAP that was a while ago...

because when you type my name into google this silly account pops up.

also the age, photo and location.

This is getting really frustrating, can someone please answer my question. I think people should have the right to delete accounts like this if they choose too especially with information that you want confidential... before someone sues!!

It is also making a great organisation like samesame look very unprofessional and desperate by locking people in!!

do you mean your actual name or your username?
i don't understand how a username can be linked to you in real life.

both your usernames also come up on MelbourneLesbianGuide.com.au

also the people in ... avatar on MLG look a lot like the people in ... avatar here.

are you girlfriends?

PS i can edit my post later if you want to remove your names from the forums too - just ask

See
Clearly, if you can find out that much just from a quick google search, then its obvious that we have proper reason to be concerned.

If an individual knows what you look like and knows your username, they really do not need anything else.

And why is my relationship with her important to you? That seems totally irrelevant to me!

Well if someone is concerned about privacy I would have thought that common sense dictates that they should not use their photo and not use a username they use elsewhere. Yet people seem to over and over again.



I asked about your relationship, because you had not made any indication that you knew each other, which is odd. At first I thought one of you was the sockpuppet (known locally as a 'clone') of the other, but then I realised you might be a couple.

I also wanted to point out and make sure that you were aware that this is not the only gay site that is associated with either of you, as you seem very concerned about it.



It is really bad form that you can't remove your account.

I've had a small amount of experience building and messing around with the back end of websites, and I don't see why it is not possible to remove accounts manually.

The fact that they don't do this, creates suspicions in my mind, that they are not actually working on creating an account deletion feature at all.

A lot of dating websites are purposefully missing this feature, so that even when someone leaves, the site can still use their account to get new members and advertisers.

For the short term, change every detail (names, email address, gender, location, age etc), set it to private & finally delete your posts.

In terms of the actual issue please feel free to go to the contact section of the website & email any of the staff so that your issue can be raised privately.

Quite simply the more you post & the more people quote you the larger your "paper trail"is which is easier to google.

Thats why you set up separate email accounts to join these kinds of sites.Thats what I do. Then once Im a member I never go back to that email account ever again. They can send emails till the cows come home for all I care, no one is reading them lolz
I dont give my real details to any website and anyone who does needs to get their head checked. Unless you dont mind your personal details being used for marketing purposes by faceless corporations that is.
