About Deleting account option:
It is my opinion that if user wants to delete his account, he should have such an option. In order not to let some random intruder delete your account, your account should be set for deletion 7 days from the date you ticked the box.
Why would this option be useful?
- Most of the time people create multi accounts because they regretted something with their old one, therefore it would be more useful for them to delete their current account and create new one, thus avoiding multi accounting rule breaking. Many user names would also be freed for other people to choose. Some users may just want to go away without leaving anything here.
This option would delete user name, all of their records, but not their ranked maps threads (if they have any ranked beatmaps).
Reseting scores option:
More often than willing to delete account, it happens that user isn't satisfied with his scores, accuracy or regrets something that can never be repaired in his eyes. Why shouldn't he have an option to reset his account (delete ALL online scores, reseting ranked and total score, but leaving all other info like Playcount intact).
Why would this be useful?
- It will prevent unnecessary multi account creating and name changing every now and then.
Why all these options?
- Currently if you have one account and you are not happy with it in some way, you would break the rule if you create another account, and you can't do anything about the account you played all this time. This option would be no harm for osu! because it basically does same with scores that permanent ban does (it won't cause any unnecessary server load).
Also, as you can see that these 2 options are tightly connected with reasons player would have to do any of them. Therefore, maybe only one of these would be needed.
