If you provided an email adress (and since you are a UN Delegate, I assume you did) go to the home page (http://www.nationstates.net), and click login. Then click Forgotten your password? Type in your nation and the email you supplied to the game. Click Request New Password, and it will be emailed to you.

Allow 24 hours, please. And don't click it repeatedly in frustration when you don't get an instant reply, as each click will change your password AGAIN, and you'll never know which is the current one.

Point of order, irrelevant here ...

If you have an AOL email address, get some other service. 95% of our complaint telegrams stating "your system isn't sending my password!" (validation, UN email, etc) are from AOL email addresses.

AOL EATS EMAIL

It's a known fact. Don't count on an AOL address for important email.

AOL doesn't eat mail. :rolleyes:
It just has a highly-protective spam blocker. It won't let you recive any automaticaly-sent email.
AOL is fine for email just not for your NS mail.
I'd suggest a Yahoo account....

AOL has publically stated on several occasions that up to 70% of mail never reaches the subscriber. We're not talking spam here, we're talking ALL mail. A friend of mine runs a paid email list of over 300,000 subscribers, and he finally banned AOL from his domain as they would not let his subscribers get mail they PAID to get. That's more than "a highly-protective spam blocker". That's interferring with commerce.

Yahoo, Gmail, and most of the other major providers give you the option of sifting through your spam mail to find stuff you want, and then *tagging* it so that it goes through correctly. AOL stuffs it into a black hole, and you never even know it was sent. That's poor customer service by any reasonable standard.

New Dutch America, I sit at my computer and process complaints from NationStates subscribers on a daily basis. 95% of email complaints revolve around AOL. Since you DO NOT have access to the statistics of failure on this site, you need to just stay out of these threads. You are NOT being helpful.
