How do i delete my yahoo 360 account thingy?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, you cannot completely delete a Yahoo! 360 account. It's linked to your primary Yahoo! ID. Since you plan to delete your account, you should probably make your 360 as invisible as possible before you delete the account. Sometimes the 360 takes a while to disappear after the entire account is deleted.

There are a few different ways to do this,

1) Select the "Settings" option at the upper right of your 360 page and change all of you settings to 'Private'. This hides the majority of your content, if someone stumbles onto your page.

2) Perform option #1 and then select the first "Display Me As" option on the Settings page. Now your profile doesn't link to your 360 page. Also, UNcheck the "Activate Simple URL" setting and the "Friend Search" setting. This way people cannot guess your 360 page by sticking your yahoo id onto the end of 360.yahoo.com or searching for you by name or email address.

3) Perform options #1 and #2 and then delete your friends by selecting the "My Friends" link in the upper right of your 360 page. Select "Edit Settings" on a friend's name, then select "Remove <friend> from your Friends Page". Finally, delete all of your content, blogs, links to pictures, lists, reviews, etc. This pretty much makes your 360 inaccessible and/or unusable by anyone who happens to get there.

Here's the info you need in regards to deleting your entire account:

When you terminate your account, you permanently lose all saved data and Yahoo site access associated with your ID. You’ll be deleting your email account, address book, group memberships, Y!Answers account, Y!Messenger ID, any photos you’ve uploaded, any 360 blogs you’ve posted, etc. If you're sure you want to delete your account, make sure you’re logged into the account you wish to delete and then click on this link: https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_use...

Yahoo will ask you to enter your password one last time and then you will click on the "Yes, terminate this account" button. Your entire account will then be completely & irretrievably deleted.

Answer 2

You must delete the entire account ... email, YA, any other thing that you are using with that account is hooked into your 360.

My advice is just go to the Settings option on the Toolbar at the top of any of your 360 pages .. set all the privacy settings to Private Just Me settings and then just don't go to the page any more.

After a while, when people can't see anything on your page.. they will just stop going there to.

Answer 3

just stop using it or report your own page for abuse ;-)
