SOOOOO when i first launched the eve online laucher from steam it promted me to make a account, (hence this one i am on now)
i played a few joined a group and had to log off, i come back and it instatly signs me in on my steam account with the month i payed for. Now non if this is a problem, the problem is
1. is there any way to link/delete this account to my steam one?
2. If you cant link it is there anyway to close this account so i can use the in game name for the other account.

Any answers would be great!

I don't know about linking.

To re-use the name, you have 2 options:

1. Delete this character and create it with the same name on the other account.

2. Transfer this character from one account to the other, using the Account Management web page. This costs money, but you don't lose your skill points. This option is recommended if you have more than a couple months' skills trained.

Probably a stupor question but how does one delete a character

When you're at the screen where you pick which character to log in (you should have 3 choices), there's a "Delete" or "Biomass" button. Press that and your character will be shown as a faded picture, and you have to wait 10 hours just to make sure you won't change your mind. After 10 hours press "Delete" or "Biomass" again and the character will be deleted. Or, if you change your mind, just click the character to log in, and it will be removed from death row.

EDIT: You are in a player corporation. You should probably sell your stuff and send the money to an alt, and/or leave the corporation, before deleting.
