Trying to access my old forum account
« on: July 12, 2021, 06:49:51 AM »
Hi guys,

Trying to log on with my original forum details and it says 'no such username exists' (the horror).

Any ideas?

Dunno how to post a pic in here, I forgot.

If you still have access to and can remember your email address you used to create the account you might try  to recover/change your password. I don't know any other way unless there is a forums admin who can force a password reset or change it for you.

Attachments and other options is the method for inserting a picture.

Name there says:
ToxicMonkey^MZC

Perhaps your displayed name and the actual username you'd log in with are different? Quadz had changed the forums at one point to allow for something like that. I had originally registered with a name like "EoMFocalor" or something, and when I left EoM, I asked if there was a way to change my username, and Quadz being the forum wiz that he was made it happen.

Thanks for the reply.  I'm still using the same email address I have used throughout my internet career.   toxicmonkey@ntlworld.com
The login thing tells me the username 'ToxicMonkey^MZC' does not exist, even though it is obviously there.  So nothing to do with passwords.

Oh well its not the end of the world.  Not like I come here every day :)

The profile definitely exists but that ^ in the name might be making it invalid on the login name filter.
