Guest Diealot Report post Posted April 24, 2016 Cannot reset the password for the forum account 'Diealot'. Have initial account setup e-mails in inbox. Password recovery via entering account name does not work. Password recovery via entering e-mail does not work. Account also can not post (last time I was able to login) despite posting in validation thread. Is there a reason for this process being so convoluted?

revi Report post Posted April 24, 2016 Your account was never fully validated, so that explains why you can't post with it. In addition, a search through forums (esp. the validation thread) seems to show that you have another (older) account, for which you claim that you can't post anywhere. As the rule is "one account per person", I'd estimate your chances of getting the 'Diealot' account validated as rather small. (As shown by your five attempts to get it validated). In any case, you'll have to wait untill Aislinn has time to look into it. (As to why the procedure is so convoluted: to limit spam and to avoid players with a posting restriction getting around it too easily) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Diealot Report post Posted April 24, 2016 To my knowledge there should be no older account, I've no idea why that keeps being repeated. If I need to use that one, I don't care, but I don't know what the name or e-mail associated with it is as 'Diealot' should be the only one that exists...

revi Report post Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) Hmm, then http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=40319&view=findpost&p=588807 is rather surprising, as you admitted having an old account. (that post is from last February, btw) Edited April 24, 2016 by revi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Diealot Report post Posted April 25, 2016 That's an admission of something? Wow. I thought the account in question was Diealot. If I'm deemed a spamming troller, whatever. I guess I don't need to participate in this forum. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Diealot Report post Posted April 25, 2016 Forum account 'Diealot' was created in August of 2013. If I'm supposed to remember an older account than that, fine. Tell me what it is, I'll use it. Otherwise, please activate 'Diealot' and reset the password. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aislinn Report post Posted April 26, 2016 One forum account per person, not per ingame character name. What happened to your account from before you came back? You had a bunch of ingame characters and whatever Diealot was before he was renamed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Diealot Report post Posted April 26, 2016 Uhm, Diealot was never renamed, I understand that requires a payment to Radu, which I've never done (check with him, I'm a certifiable cheap bastard). There may have been other characters, but to my knowledge only forum account registered was 'Diealot'. If that's not the case, I'm happy to use whatever the first forum account is/was, but I do not know what the account name is/was, nor do I know the e-mail associated with it (the only e-mail I remember that I would have used is associated with the 'Diealot' account, if you want old e-mails I have with messages about the 'Diealot' account to be sent to you, I'd be happy to do so). I realize you don't want spammers and whatnot, but I honestly have no idea what other forum account you are talking about. If nothing can be done with the 'Diealot' forum account, I'm assuming you don't want me to make another (I don't have another e-mail to associate with another forum account, but that's beside the point), and since I don't know anything about a previous account... I guess I'm stuck in a loop of no account. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aislinn Report post Posted April 26, 2016 Okay, I'll approve Diealot since you don't recall it and clearly are not using it. I forgot now what one popped up associated with you and I don't have time at the moment to go through all that again. When I think of it I'll let you know or lock it up or something. It's not just spammers but people trying to make multiple accounts to hide or vote multiple times or other forms of forum annoyance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
