Accounts can be deleted. The server needs to verify to some place. Just remove the account from the server. Simple request.

You, my Lord, have a lot to learn about blockchain technology
Blockchain account and server account the same thing?
It's all decentralized. Even if you were somehow able to get your actual account deleted, (which you can't), its spread across the decentralized blockchain anyway, available on any number of other websites or front ends. Even deleted posts and comments aren't deleted, just hidden away but easily accessible
This is also, by the way, why I put so much emphasis on copyright infringement. A lawyer could easily retroactively browse through your posts, find copyrighted material and then send the evidence in an email to the original owners and sue you for profit.
The cleaner we are the better, really
If it's all decentralized, how can this lawyer even find you?
If you can delete posts, you can delete the account.
You're only symbolically deleting the post from steemit.com, not from steem. I can just go on, say steemd.com and view all your activity.
As for lawyers, they have their ways to just dig out who you are, IP addresses and such. Decentralized doesn't necessarily mean anonymous (though it does help)
Then symbolically have someone delete my account. There's a logon server isn't there?
https://steemit.com/login.html
I think it can be deleted, the admins just don't want to or they would rather people not know it can be done.
Even if it's still there but totally hidden. I want my account gone from here!
From the Steemit.com TOS. I request the service be terminated !
