Hi all. A long time ago back in 2002 I had an old S@H account my name was vortex and was registed to ian@what-the-hell.co.uk needless to say I have lost the password and cant remember it (after many hours or trying) I've managed to transfer my old work unit to this account now but want to fix my old profile. The old profile has a few bits of text and my photo I'd like to change it but understand that I dont have any way of doing this without admin help. Am I in the correct place to apeal for this profile to be removed? I can do mybest to prove I am who I say I am if needed, but not sure how yet lol. thanks in advance for any help. Ian |

If you still have your authenticator key for Seti, you can log in with it at http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/get_passwd.php |

Thank you for your reply but sadly, I had only ever used the old program and that was on a PC that is no longer with us so I do not have my key. Does anyone know who I can contact around this matter? Thank you Ian |

Oh, hold on, you mean on Seti Classic? The one before Seti on BOINC? That database is unreachable. The contents were moved over to here though. Is this your old account? If it is, then there's not much that can be done about it. Accounts can't be merged, nor will the administrators easily delete an account. Not unless you specifically set it up as a sex spam advert. |

Hiya, Yes thats me. Sadly I cant access it to set up any kind of advert. I'm working on reactivating my email account it's registered to but that site is under development and has no ETA on being back up :( Do you have any idea how I could contact an admin for help on this? I can still provide all the account personal information, even send ID copies if neeed lol. Thanks again Ian |

I also have this issue where i was on the old system in 200 with user name mosworld on team NoNags before I deployed to the Persian Gulf. I no longer have that email address or computer. Is there any way to claim my old WU and hours? Semper Fi!! |
