Discourse automatically cleans up inactive users (trust level 0, no message posted) after 2 years. The settings **clean up inactive users after days** can be modified.

Besides that, new users can delete their account but the option isn’t available after some time (I don’t know the duration: maybe the setting is **delete user max post age** which is 60 days by default).

So, active users that have been there for some time shouldn’t be able to delete their account by themselves.
