Hello everyone, due to memory issues, I had to clear my cellphone's Chrome data and lost my account's password in the process. I remember the log-in username but for some reason I used a different password back in the day and I no longer remember it...
The problem is, I don't have access to the e-mail I used to create an account, as I was locked out from it because I attempted to log in way to many times and haven't used it since 2009, naturally I could not complete the password recovery process...
Honestly, I just want to recover my favorite list, as I have roughly 8 years of fapping history in it and don't want to let go.
I hope this issue can be solved, and thanks in advance.

Without the password or access to the recovery email, it is not possible to recover an account.

Thanks Tenb, I have pinned this topic. You would not believe how many PMs about this the mods get (no, it is not only you who gets those PMs smile.gif )

@Nantonaku33 : The moderation note is not at you (sorry if at any point it sounds like that), it is to ensure that we have a reference for future cases. And yeah, since it is the admin just above, there ain't anything that can be done about it.

Please help!
Today I cleared the cookie so account logged out for the first time in a year or so. For some reason my password don't work now, so I tried to recover it.
Turned out I forgot on what email was registered my account and I have so many I can't even remember all the names to recover them. I'm desperately recovering all the emails I could remember to find where the password recovery mail did land. Would really appreciate if you could give me a hint tho.

Account name: Dead_Kavaiol
All my emails are "fireline" and "deadline" with numbers at the end.

p.s. created this (DeadKavaiol) account only to ask for help, will abandon it later as wiki suggests

I think that's pretty clear... If you can't remember your password or what e-mail address you used, you can't recover your account.

Is there a way to restore the original login name, not the password?

It should be at the top left of the forum, next to "Logged in as:"

I don't remember the original login, which is not the visible user name and so can't enter the forum with original account, is it possible to restore the login?

Since the thread has already been necroed multiple times, here's a reminder.

EDIT: You may also PM Tenboro if you are using a new device, lost access to the e-mail account and forgot your password but still have access to the previous device with an active session to prove your identity.
(This goes without saying but what happens afterwards is your responsibility, so make sure it's you and not your dark half or something.)

Amending the wiki to reflect this as well.
