Long story short: You don't. After the delete window, you don't get to decide whether your posts stay up. You can email PG with a request, and you might be able to get certain posts deleted if you have a compelling reason, but I don't think entire posting histories are ever deleted for any reason besides spam.

Email info at ycombinator.com and ask nicely :)

You don't.

We have your infos. FOREVER~.

Which we shall use as blackmail if you ever decide to do anything funny.

Like leave.

We are watching you.

geez what's with the downvotes. some people just have no sense of humour.

This is not a comedy site.

mmm, I'd have to try pretty hard to laugh at that one.
