NationStates Jolt Archive

Ok I had put in my email address and it says that it would send me a new password but it doesn't.. and I'd really like to keep the other Nation I made..

It's Called UnimatrizZero... what can I do to regain access?

Thanks..

Make sure that it is indeed the email that you registered that particular nation with. I just did a search and the nation was not found so I guess it may be possible that you are typing in the nation name incorrectly.

Sorry it is: UnimatrixZero

When I goto change me password it says:

Replacing Your Password
Done! You will receive an e-mail shortly to notify you of UnimatrixZero's new password.


But I never get an email :(

Make sure that you are using the same email that you registered the nation with. I am not sure of what can be done aside from one of the game mods helping you. You might just have to face losing that nation. It is a young nation so it shouldn't hurt too much to lose it.

yeah, Im having the same problem with Albion Soviets after requesting its revival. There it is in all its glory but I cant get at it! I'm pretty sure I entered teh correct email address but if not and there is anyway at all for me to be able to prove that I am its godfather, please let me know. Thanks.

First step for both of you is to check your spam filters. This is the most probable problem.

well, I only have a lowly hotmail account and I just set it to default so virtually any mail will get through. I guess I will just have to let it go, its not the end of the world, really.

Well the phpbb was able to send me a new password and activation, but it's not tied to the NationStates cookie apparently. So I can post in the forums but not do anything in the Nation States program.

I guess that is what happens when you tie it two seperate systems inperfectly like this. As the phpbb 2.0.4 is a modified version of the message board, so where/who control the User ID and Password is abit complex it seems.

I believe an ADMIN who has access to the database could do a manual fix here. :) But why the phpbb send out the email/password and not the NationsStates remains a mystery perhaps its a bug?

You only receive the "Done! You will receive an e-mail..." message if the server has been able to successfully send it -- so it's getting caught by a filter at your end somewhere.

This happens a lot, unfortunately. If you're having no luck after a day or so, write to me and I'll reset you manually.

sorry, here's another stupid question but what is the most efficient and least annoying way of contacting you, [violet]?

admin(at)nationstates.net

violet, could you please reset me manually? and send me the password to my email acct?

I do not have any filters on my hotmail.com acct.

I greatly appreciate your help in this. :)

email her at admin@nationstates.net.

I think I worked it out-- I sent an email (from my hotmail account) added teh adress to a safe list and within a second, an email with my password came back. If violet is that fast than, wow! What I suspect is, if we add admin..etc. to our hotmail contacts list, the mail that was previously blocked gets through the second one makes the change.

In case that was all obvious/unhelpful/rubbish then I would just like to say Im back and I'm on my first billion people, whoo hoo, and so forth.

ok do I add admin@nationstates.net or @nationstates.net to my safe list.. aww I just add every variable I can think of.. but as I said, I was able to get one from the phpbb password reset... from nbationstates.net so what gives ? lol

I sent a message to the admin, and I also added the email address and the domain as a "safe" account to recieve email...

Soooooooooooooooooo... HELP!!!!! :) aka SmallBorg

Please reset my account...... please.. nothing else worked...

One last thing, I checked the Junk Email Folder that ALL Junk Email goes to, it wasn't in there either.

So I know it's not my email account filtering it (I tried it again yesterday and today) nothing.

So ...... please fix this. Thanks

I will take a look into this later.

Hi... I'm here in "later" and word? :)
