Why do people close their Fluther accounts? Especially long term members?

I suppose this it buried somewhere in the Fluther rules, but I’d rather just discuss it here.

#1.) Why would you close a Fluther account? As opposed to just turning off alerts and leaving it dormant in case you should want to dip back in on occasion?

#2.) Is closing a Fluther account irrevocable? Say a member with 20,000 lurve closes an account. Are those lost forever, or can an account be reactivated?

#3.) How do you close a Fluther account? I’m afraid to click “Delete your account” to see what warnings/instructions are brought up – I’m afraid I might delete myself accidentally.

Thanks to all who participate.
