Hi all. I’m longtime poster MaxTheVool. I have been totally unable to get into my account after the board switch. I think my password was too short, but none of the password recovery stuff works. There’s a chance it’s because the email address associated with the account is truly ancient and obsolete, which would be my bad, obviously. Who do I need to talk to, and what should I do? Thanks!
