Hello,

Founders of the forum are not possible to be deleted or removed. You could not remove your details unless you can do it manually (delete all your posts, and editing information in your account). It would only be possible to change the founder if the founder left the forum six months ago.

Best thing is to delete any personal info and handle over your account and to the founder tools. You would need to make sure you tell them to remove your email in the forum and the founder tools.

I would think you could just replace your site registration email with one of Speedy's choice and use a temporary password which he could change later. After handing control to him and while you are still an admin you should be able to delete your own account I would think.

Exactly. You just have to talk to your new trusted founder and follow what MrMario advised. Razz
