Actually they can, they just pretend that they can't.

Two ways:
1) using the steward action hideuser and globally locking the account effectively deletes an account, but they only do this when they don't like your username.
2) using the UserMerge extension and merging the account into an account shared by all deleted users. Unfortunately they don't use this extension.

It's part of the addiction cycle, you think you've left, but you'll eventually come back. And there's nothing you can do about it. (well other than dns blocking)

Re: The worst part is that you can't delete your account
Speaking of which: today this landed in my email box. It's not spam or a phishing attempt, the embedded links actually go to WMF-controlled URLs. I haven't logged in there since 2009 or 2010. It's been a very long time. I could ask some officious bastard to lock it out. But I know damn well they won't, because I'm a "prominent critic". And not someone they would help.

A certain notorious banned user fond of using far too many emojis has tried several times to register accounts using my sucks admin email. I'm not sure what they are trying to accomplish

First, thank you for keeping the crazies out. There aren't many but they tend to be very extreme.
Second, I think I know whom you speak of. He's almost universally despised on all internet forums.
