    No one can stop you using this website but yourself. You don't need an account to do use the site, but in any case if your account was de-activated, you could simply create a new one.

    If you're unable to exercise self-control maybe it would be beneficial to see a psychiatrist?

    If like me you have a lot of accounts/passwords and use a password manager to log in automatically, simply delete the password (or delete any list it's on). I know it's sad but that was the only way I could wean myself off another forum - sort of going 'cold turkey'.
    It never seems to be possible to get accounts deleted though - short of insulting people and getting banned! ;)
