What does the comment: "You're so smart!" mean? Does it mean one is clever or they're elegant?

The first time I encountered the second meaning was Kenyans using it on Facebook. They were commenting on a picture somebody had posted.
 
Welcome to the forum, John. :cool:

There's no need to capitalise all but the small words in your thread title - it's not like the title of a book.

@John Wainaina Also note that your title doesn't follow the standard preferred format for a thread title. Titles should not be the subject (theme) of the thread, nor should they be a question. If your post includes a sentence for us to look at (as yours does), that should be the title. To clarify, the title of this thread should have been "You're so smart!"

Add a post to the Support Area sub-forum requesting account deletion and @Red5 (the admin and therefore the only person who can do it) will deal with it in due course.
