Is it possible to terminate PSN accounts?
I was considering doing the birthday glitch, but I don't really want to do this if I can't terminate the account once I'm done.
Don't bash me for it, I've never done any of the money glitches, auto grinded, etc. etc.
I just saw the Audi R8 LMS Race Car Team Playstation, but I was a couple million short. Man that car looks beast. :) A couple people suggested the birthday ticket, and as I don't have any trades open...
 
Well, then you have all those random PSN accouts floating around the networks taking up possible usernames for other people, etc. etc.
Then again, I do see your point. But why just delete if its possible to terminate it?
 
I don't think unused usernames are a big deal for the PSN, besides, I'm sure after a period of non-use, they'll be deleted anyway.
 
Deleting accounts from the PS3 doesn't actually terminate the account as the data still sits on Sony's servers.

There is a limit to the amount of accounts you can create as I am unable to create any more. To get the old data removed, I need to contact Sony, but I can't be arsed as I have no need for any more accounts.
 
You could just create a psn of random letters like ahircndcjrgbh and maybe include numbers.No one will Ever choose that as a name so do it

But that's my middle name! :)
 
Out of curiousity, what was the limit?

I'm not entirely sure as my PS3 wasn't bought new, by me. I've had a few accounts as my PS3 needed to be formatted a few times and I'd forgotten the login & password details. I have four current accounts on my PS3 now.

Having just Googled, it appears to be 64 accounts maximum.
 
I thought 6 was the maximum accounts you could have registered per PS3. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
 
16 accounts per PS3. So says a friends who had 16 accounts on his. :)

Sixteen active accounts at any one time, but it's 64 accounts, total; active or otherwise.

How do you think people were getting all the birthday glitched cars?
