Title: E-mail Mess UP. Need to speak with Admin.
Post by: jc84jc00 on April 10, 2012, 11:31:46 am: Greetings everyone this is jc4jc.

I attempted to change my e-mail on my original account jc4jc and inadvertently put in an incorrect e-mail address. I really need to get this taken care of as there is vital information on that account for the mod I am working on.

Much Thanks in advance,
jc4jc

Second of all, to guard against the remote risk that you are an imposter, how can you prove who you say you are?

BTW, the actual account he wants recovered is http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=1201

I got around it by creating the incorrect e-mail account that I had specified, and then using "forgot password" on WordPress. Works great -- assuming the e-mail account in question hasn't been claimed by someone else, of course.

Hmm. More accurately, neither the member list nor member search will find a user that isn't activated. :wtf:

Post by: jc4jc on April 12, 2012, 01:00:57 pm: Yes the jc84jc00 account is me. Thanks karajorma for activating it I'll fix my e-mail asap. And thanks to Goober5000 for being so up front with the situation and making sure it was me. Thanks, The E for validation that it was me. Thanks to all. This is the best community ever.

Oh btw what should I do with the jc84jc00 account just keep it in case this happens again or something?

I'll see if I can merge it with this one. If not, I'll just delete it so that it appears as guest.
