this has been on my mind for a while, so I'll post it and see:

from what I read in another thread, you don't just delete inactive members/ people who have not logged in for a while in case they decide to come back

but

as soon as someone requests their account deleted, it is (well not on the spot, but it is)

so my question: why does the same logic not apply

if that user wants to use their account again in the future, they can't because it's gone... why?

(am I making sense?)

I just know that sometimes they might not be thinking straight when they ask their account to be deleted. it's possible
