Have any of you deleted your lush account then months later joined again?
It wasn't months, but days. I deleted an account because of a creeper. I joined back up and am staying blissfully anonymous!

This practice is strongly frowned upon by the site. Members who wish to erase their history can contact the site about changing their member name. Others who wish to not be seen for a period of time can have their accounts suspended for a time.
If you have a number of stories already verified, this is even more a factor due to the fact that when you do return, all your stories will have to be re-verified, a long and difficult process that may never be done at all.
Before you resort to deletion one should contact the site to be sure some other solution can be worked out.
I have zero respect for such a thing.
I can maybe understand if first time around 'you' were not honest about who 'you' are, then you realized that Lush is great community and you want to sort things out and become respectful member, but to delete your account 2, 3 or more times..please, find somewhere else to play, Lush obviously doesn't suit you. People who delete their accounts irritates me, specially if they are doing the same thing over and over again, specially if they are hanging out with the same crowd, posting in the same threads as before, having the same conversations..and it's obvious to most that that is the same person with new account..pathetic. Grow up and live with consequences of your choices and don't delete your account, but be responsible the first time around.
p.s. I was generalizing this, it is not directed to OP.
I deactivated my account for a week or so because someone Google stalked me and found out my DJ stage name. Freaky!
Yes, I've been gone for about 5 or 6 months. However, I left because my real life was imploding and nothing at all to do with Lush except my lack of self control. I needed to focus on things in my real life and used Lush as a goal/reward when certain things were accomplished, then I thought I could sign back on.
I'm not a serial account deleter, and my user name has remained the same. I'm not hiding who I am/was; I just needed to do what was right for me at that time.
i deleted my account once because my real life got crazy but when things settled back down i opened a new account.I like this site and i wont delete my account again.
If I ever felt the need to be away from lush for awhile, I would either just not log on, or just deactivate my account (a very nice recent addition to the site). And the people I would most want to maintain contact with, I can reach by other means anyway. But no. I have never deleted my account and doubt that if I ever did, I would return.
Well I deleted my account before because I fell asleep and left my computer on. My BF found the page and my story and well he sorta went ballistic for a bit. We had a huge fight and stuff and...well....I left for a bit because he made me. Now I keep my Lushing low profile and I'm more careful about my computer. I love my mom, but I still sorta want to keep this part of my life private from her.
