Is there a way to reset my TMW password via email?
Posted: 05 Aug 2012, 18:15
Hi all !
I haven't participated in TMW for years, and over time I forgot which passwords I used, and I'm not even 100% sure what exact account name I used within TMW, either. But I am 100% sure of the email address I used to sign up, since it's the very same one I've used for over 15 years.
Is there any way to get a password reset sent to the email address I provided upon account creation for the game, in the very same way as I have just successfully done for the forums? Please let me know. Thanks.

A search on the forums produced this link:

Which led to this purge-list with my account-name on it:
http://server.themanaworld.org/gm/purge-2009-10-12.txt
So .... I guess I'm perma-deleted, with no way to restore the account. That's a shame, I put some real effort into that account; it was high level with some nice holiday event prizes on it, too.
I think purges are a sad choice to make, especially for characters that are high level. People will often return to an old game they used to enjoy, especially if they had a good time and achieved something there.
Also, perhaps these details should be on the main page, in the registration area, or if you have a "forgot your username / password?" area for the game, as it would clear up this question and maybe save some time and redundant posting on the forums.
Anyways, I think I answered my own question with the lucky results of a search, but if there remains any viable option for me that I may not have considered, please let me know. Thanks.
