Leaving a Group

If you want to leave a group, what happens depends on whether you've paid an entry fee in an active season:

Admin: Managing Leave Requests

When a member submits a leave request, group admins will see a notification:

• On the Homepage — a red alert card showing who wants to leave
• In Group Management — under "Pending Leave Requests" within the Admin Tools section

For each request you can:

• Keep Fee – Approve the request and keep the entry fee in the prize pot
• Refund – Approve the request and mark the fee as refunded (you'll need to arrange the actual refund separately)
• Reject – Decline the request; the member stays in the group

Closing a Group

Group admins can request to permanently close a group. This uses a 7-day voting process to ensure all members agree:

1. Go to Settings → Group Management
2. Click the "Close Group" button in your admin actions
3. Enter an optional reason and confirm
4. All group members are notified and have 7 days to vote
5. Members can vote Accept or Reject from their homepage or Group Management

Deleting Your Account

You can permanently delete your account from Settings → User Profile:

1. Open the User Profile section in Settings
2. Scroll to the bottom and expand "Delete My Account"
3. Enter a reason (optional), tick the confirmation checkbox, and click "Permanently Delete"

What happens next depends on your group memberships:

• Not in any active paid groups — your account is deleted immediately
• Admin of a group with other members — you must transfer admin rights to another member first (use the "Transfer Admin" button in Group Management)
• In active groups with paid entry fees — a leave request is created for each group. Once every group admin has resolved your request, your account is automatically deleted

Admin: Transfer Admin Rights

If you need to hand over admin responsibilities before leaving or deleting your account:

1. Go to Settings → Group Management
2. Click "Transfer Admin" in the admin actions for your group
3. Select the member you want to make the new admin
4. They'll receive a notification to accept or decline the transfer

Both views have the same functionality – use whichever you prefer!
