    Solved Help recovering old acct

    Post by EBHobo2 December 6th 2016, 10:42 am

    So, I'm the admin of a long dead forum. I tried guessing what my old password was but couldn't crack it, and the email I initially used on the account when signing up is no longer active either. Any admins mind helping me out with this? Would love to recover my old forum.

    Are you the founder or just an administrator?

    If the founder, please read this and send the information to me by PM: https://help.forumotion.com/t127211-password-problems-or-lost-your-founder-s-password .

    Just an admin, the founder left years before the forum itself died out.

    Well that'll certainly help, but first I need assistance resetting the password on my old acct.

    [Edit] Well maybe that won't help, as there are no other users active on this old board that can vote in favor of a founder transfer lol. Besides, all I'm primarily interested in a password/email change Smile

    We can not help a non-founder with passwords.
