I'd say no. I would take "delete" to mean never exist. Death is a way of deleting yourself, in other words, you can kill yourself to delete yourself from this world. I believe the only way you can prove you existed after you die, is through someone's memory or through concrete evidence like a memorial or a biblography etc.
It's probably impossible to delete Shakespeare or Nietzche, but for the rest of us, unless our life story is passed on as a family tradition, we would cease to "exist" in the lifes of the ones living in the generation after the last person who remembers you dies. And therefore in this sense we could be deleted.
But I'd like to think that we can never delete the fact that we were once born and that we once lived. We may not be the main story line, we may just be the gaps between the words and sentences, yet that doesn't mean we do not exist or can be deleted. Foritwouldmakenosense. We cannot delete ourselves unless we did not live.

why not. Seriously this is what I want to do. Well not in real world, but here in this virtual world.
There are times when I feel like I can't handle what is being absorbed by my mind, and what hurts me most is I don't know if everything is out of coincidence or not. I have a good grasp of my mind still, everything is under control, and I will not fall into that psychosis of what is not real and what is.
What can I say everyone has their own entitlements. I am entitled to peacefully enjoy without having to think twice if everything is real or if someone is trying to see how far do I go before i breakdown to only God-knows what. Not insanity for sure.
there must be a reason why you asked this question. What is your upview?

Going by logic ... Unless you know who you are, this deletion is not possible.
But why to bother when there is already some one out there to do the job for you? You are not eternal. Use the allowed time to enjoy yourself.

Spacey; In a word, Yes..
I recommend swimming in a VERY cold Ocean;
swim, 'way, 'way out..
Carry butchers' minse, AND blood; -in a plastic bag.. .
Hurl the sh*t, just, [everywhere] as you listen to The Doors sing:
"The End" (from "Appocalypse, NOW!").. on your Walkman..
-for it will -within seconds- BE upon you:
a Great White! THE.. End.

Delete, I don't think so.
You can DESTROY yourself, by smoking, being an alcoholic or doing drugs for example. Or with serious nevrose.
Hope none of this is you ?

it is in-so-far-as you can keep yourself from everyone else by not being truthful about your natural ways. deny yourself the ability to be honest with people...or of course to be nomadic and not make any lasting connections
