Inappropriate?I am not asking for my account to be deleted because of a commenting banning issue. After I created the account, I never contemplated responding to any articles; it was created on a whim only. I ask because I no longer wish for this organisation to store my personal data including personally identifiable username and email address. Since the account is no longer in use, this stands as a reasonable request. Furthermore, nowhere on the new user sign up page itself is there a direct link to those conditions mentioned in your response (such a discovery requires a further two clicks to find a link to the terms of use).

Inappropriate?You can edit your profile and delete your email address and you can change your display name.
I'll make sure we link the legal terms from the registration form, but your use of the Gawker Media sites indicates your agreement to abide by the terms in effect. -
Inappropriate?Yes, but this doesn't actually change my profile URL. For example, if my display name was "abc" and I change it to "123", my profile URL remains as http://lifehacker.com/people/abc/ - even after logging out and back in again. So in effect, it is impossible to remove all known information from the system even after following your steps outlined above.
I’m sad
