The following response has been received from Launchpad administration:

"The current recommended process is to do exactly what marcelozanon did:
ask a "question" in Launchpad, so that admins can remove the accounts.

In future we should have a process for people to do this themselves."

I'd also want my account to be removed. I made a new account which is (https://launchpad.net/~andoty-jazz) so I wanted this account (https://launchpad.net/~andotyjazz) account be removed if possible. And also for the admin. If possible, can you make a feature that will make a user be crawled by Google or not. I know it's a tough and rough job thou but it's sure to attract more people to register to launchpad and cooperate and share. I'll keep track if the feature of removing one's account is already at hand. Thanks for launchpad. Very promising web collaboration app. (P.S. I already posted this message to other other topic related to this issue. I would like to make sure the account that I am not using be removed. Thanks in advance)
