As the new year begins and people begin their New Year's resolutions, I anticipate there will be a dozen request for someone to delete their account. I'm not encouraging anyone to quit QONQR, but instead I decided it is finally time to copy and paste the email I send out to all people who request account deletion so I can stop typing the response each time, and instead send them a link.
For security reasons, accounts will not be deleted upon email request. It is shockingly easy to fake an email from a sender if you are at IT administrator or can find an open mail exchange. To verify you are in control of your QONQR account, there are a few steps that must be completed first.

Search for the section entitled, "How to completely remove, hide, and cleanse my identity in QONQR when I quit the game" (steps listed below)
- Use the Web Portal (https://portal.qonqr.com) to switch factions. This will destroy all your "nanobots" (a game component that results from your activity in the game), leaving no trace of your prior activity in the game
- Delete all your bases in the game using the mobile client (use the bases button in the lower right to access your bases on the map screen)
- Delete you email address and any shipping address you may have entered under your Account settings in the web portal (https://portal.qonqr.com).
- Change your codename under your Account settings in the web portal (https://portal.qonqr.com). You may choose any codename you wish, we recommend using "Deleted201601011200" with the numbers representing year month day hour minute to help ensure the name is unique.
- Delete the application from your smart phone
You must complete steps 1,2, and 3. I will complete step 4 for anyone who does not have coins. Email support once the first 3 steps are complete.
