the way you do it is you delete your account and start again - but why would you want to do this
Fresh start, is it possible???

No, you should stick to only one account. It is against the site rules to open up a second account just to start over with games and ratings.
Just open a new account start clean if you like. New username and blow off the old account. Shouldn't be a problem for household to have multiple accounts (father and son), but maybe change emails just in case this thread draws attention and somebody wants to make an example of you.
Unless you have dedicated IP address (unlikely, and would require a little more savvy to work around) almost impossible to detect mutiple accounts. Plenty of spoofing and rewriting tricks that can sidestep any issues. Probably not even necessary though easy enough. Simple stuff that can't be stopped makes detection not worth the cost and sophistication of the software. Sounds like you only actually intend to use one account anyway, so ahead.
Even if you were banned right now, you would have to really screw up to not get around it with no problem if you just keep quiet about it.
why bother to start a new account though? Your current stats are not permanent. I you get better your rating will go up your percentages will go up. There is no need to start over.

my main reason y i am curious to start it over is all about the time out ratio that chess.com impose. i have 24% timeout ration losses that means i must have 241 games to complete before entering into any tourneys ( 10 timeout ratio ), as of now i got 100 games...
Happy new year everyone!!!
tnx to everyone who answered me... really appreciated..
for those who want to know y am i wanna do it, it is because i have a high rating ( 24 % ) time out ratio, the reason i cant play in any tourneys... need more than 140 more games to complete ( as of now i got 100 completed games ) before i got the maximum timeout ratio ( 10 % ), the chess.com requires... It is not about the rating or the win loss percentage....
and to swestland, is it that easy to delete and create a new account again with the same email address.. Is this is a try for me or accurate solution that must i take.. Im just confusing that chess.com prohibits me if i delelte it. Tnx anyway for ur reply.....
Ei, i'm just curious if its possible for me to restart my standing to 0-0-0 for the fresh start for 2009. If yes, is it requires to quit or resign all my current games??? Happy new year to all!!
