I have accounts on Ralph and Gerasim and WuProp and Yafu I want to close, as they're cluttering up my stats. I can't seem to find a way to do this, surely it's possible?

If you change your name and on the projects you want to hide , the stats sites will not link them to you , worth a try .
To something like "PHotSBT" and you will know it`s you if you ever want them back .
On most boinc projects account deletion is only possible by an admin .

Thanks, I'll try that. I did wonder what you meant by PHotSBT. So you weren't calling me Hot then :-)

Hang on.... I'm known as Peter Hucker in the stats, so my new name isn't reflected there - it's maybe by email address? I've changed that, since anything to my domain comes to my email program anyway.

You must change email address to trigger CPID change, name doesn't matter.

Sorted, as I have infinite email addresses.
