My friend *edited out* accidentally logged out and would like password sent to *edited out* (it's currently not working)
If not possible then please send a reply to the e-mail.

edit: Thanks for your time (I figured since they are un nation it wouldn't be hard to check if the e-mail was spelled wrong in settings)

if "your friend" has lost his password, he can go to the NS site, click on the "log in" link in the main page, then click "Forgotten your password?"


edit: note: if your friend didn't have an email address associated with the account.. then I don't believe there is a way to get a new password.

Kwaswhakistan Is Correct

If an email was put in the optional field when the nation was created, or has been added by the user through that nations settings page, then clicking on the " lost your pass - word " option on the login page will send an automated email to that address which will allow the user to get their pass - word back ...

If not, then that nation cannot be accessed unless your friend remembers the pass-word and can do it them - self.

Have your friend request a new password from the forgotten password page.
