Password reset

I've read the FAQ on forgotten passwords. Well I've not forgotten mine per se but the one I recorded does not work. I'd like to change my call sign but cannot without a working password. Is there anyway I can get the password reset so I can log in with a new one?

The call sign I believe the account is under is 242Sqn_Tanker. (NB the ending period is part of the callsign)

I was under the mistaken impression that your first name was Bill when I sent you a pm. I apologise if that offended you.

Now, if you could please address my original question?

Hi

Could you please confirm via PM, the e-mail address you used when you created the HL account.

I will delete the account and you can reuse the callsign.

Regards

Before I reset the account.

Would you like to tell me How you have logged into the Hyperlobby today if you don't have the account password ?

I have a password. I don't remember what the password is. I'm able to log into HL because I have the check box that says "sever auto-connect every hyper lobby connection" marked. Therefore I'm able to log in automatically without knowing what the password is.

The problem is that I can't change my Call Sign because that requires that I type the password in the chat bar. Since I don't remember it I can't do that.

Do you use HL? Don't you have those boxes checked so that you don't have to type the password each time?

Here's one more proof that I am the person who created the account. I have pm'd you the email I used to establish the account. Send an email to that address notifiying the owner that you have been asked to cancel the account and that if the owner did not request that action he should answer the email.
Since I established the account on HL and I have the email account registered there, I will answer the email in the affirmative.

I trust this will satisfy you.

if you want us to help you then play nice, these hoops you are jumping through are to protect users HL names especially squadron tags and ID's.

Alpha, I'm sorry if I came across as sarcastic, but it seemed obvious as to how I can log on even if I had forgotten the password. I understand and appreciate the concern for security.

I logged on several times to HL to see if the account had been reset yet. I did not monitor it and I did not see your page. I will check it now.

I forget now why I put the period. It had to do with another name change.

As I have said, I have tried to change the call sign many times by eliminating the period and other changes. Each time the system asks you to verify the pw by typing in the chat box.

I have just answered your page on HL.

Again thanks for the help.

Hi

Please appreciate approaching admin then these forums with a just user name and e-mail address isn't enough to warrant a user name reset alone.

For your security we will ask for more information and/or use the process you have just completed.

Sometimes things that are obvious to you look different from anothers point of view.

I hope all is now corrected and you have settled back into the HL .

Alpha thankyou for the reset. All is well now.

As I said above, I do appreciate the security concerns.
