Am I screwed?

Yea you'll have better luck on eqemulator.org - if any luck is to be had. Check whatever email address you would have used to sign up in the first place for old emails from them, if you know neither the account name or the email address you signed up with then... well you're unlikely to get anywhere.

Hey Sylexis, nice to hear from you again, hopefully I'll be seeing you in-game soon from my original character and not a level 1 start-over. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I think he said that backwards.

Yeah if you can log into eqemu.org and view that you can request to change your password, that I am certain of.

well as long as you know your email heh.

That's good to hear, here's hoping it's just that easy. I definitely know my email and I've made a similar post on EQEmu and messaged Rogean on the EQEmu forums.

Hopefully all I need to do now is sit back and wait... hopefully.

If you look in your eqemu folders there are some character name files saved too. If your char and account names are the same then you can get them back that way.

Good to know for future reference, but I've got the account name now. It's available under the control panel on the EQEmu forums. I appreciate the input though, thanks!

A word to the wise. Always store your passwords, for everything, in two places. In today's world there are too many and it is unlikely that you will be able to remember them all - even if you try to make them similar (can't make them the same due to different rules for passwords of course).

To this end, I have a file on my computer (secured) and an app on my Windows Phone for storing these.

Good luck on your quest to get your character back - I suspect you will be successful. Welcome back in either event.

I appreciate the kindly reinforcement. And believe me, I will definitely be storing my passwords more safely from now on. I had already begun a way of archiving them for such emergencies, but hadn't started prior to joining P99. Lesson learned to be sure, and I hope you're right about my impending success.
