Lost my old account :(

K_2 · 05-03-2008, 01:32 AM

Who do i talk to about retrieving my old account, i just can't remember the password for it. Keep trying every now and then, i must have about 30 passwords for various sites and none of them work. All i need are the first 2 letters and i'd probably rember it.

I have tried all my email addresses for a password recovery, but it could be a long abandoned email account. Had 7 at one time - now down to 4.

I've even looked on my old computer and all i can find are 2 cookies for cardmodels.net which i doubt are of any use.

Can anyone help?

Hi

I to lost my old account I just started a new one and carried on from there, one of the mods contacted me and was fine about it. Ubless you realy want to use your old account i suggest just re-introduce yourself explaining who you used to be and off you go. I dare say we are not the only ones in this place in this position.

hrmmmmmm thats really tough to find without an idea of the password..... if you can give me any hints as to the either the email or username (partials even) it would help - otherwise J is right....

All fixed, thanks Chris

Anyone know a fix for the opera caching problem with the site?

**cgutzmer** · 05-04-2008, 07:32 PM

Thanks
Chris

Firefox HAHAHAHAHA, i'd rather use IE

I'm having to press CTRL+F5 using opera to get an updated page, eg. a read thread shows no new posts even though there maybe 5 new posts , hoping i can sort it out my end, maybe with a custom CSS, and add a no-cache?

probably my settings.....

Yea... I wonder why firefox is bad... I mean firefox has all those freakingly good add-ons you can use, and plus there is even a portable version to use on your USB

I find Firefox has the same tendancy to just stop working and die as IE.
So i go with the least frustrating explorer, opera, to surf the web without crashing and use IE exclusively for FTP.
Just me and technology i guess

.

Found the problem with the site by the way, was at my end, opera was set to NEVER check for updated pages. Not sure why.

The fix is, Tools-> preferences-> advanced -> history -> set 'check documents' to always.
