New Moderator Ability: Reactivate Closed Accounts Dec. 20, 2007 at 6:57pm by davjs Moderators can now reactivate closed accounts in the event that a member accidentally closes his or her account and wishes to reopen it before the 7 day waiting period is up. 
ok in the past week i've seen three people's accounts re-activated within a day of closing them. i thought that livezilla was implemented because somebody (if i remember rightly, peeta or one of his accounts) had some fucked-up script or something close his account without him knowing what was happening....not because people closed their accounts with full knowledge of it and a day later wanted to come back. these people all knew exactly what the fuck they were doing. they all knew that anything was possible to happen on the site after they left. they all typed in "I understand that I cannot undo this action (for 7 days)." how the fuck was it an accident on any of their parts? this means even worse attention-whoring. come on, the significance of closing an account has been diminished enough; are you really going to make it this much worse and just bend over to people like this?

Maybe it's just for people who have had a bad day or something and are feeling really extreme about cutting all social outlets off. Though it's not like 7 days is really that long of a waiting period.

Closing accounts is pointless.

Personally, I can understand why it exists, but, it should only be used in case something odd with the system happens.
