Changing email address

Post by midnight* » Mon May 28, 2007 1:15 pm

Is there anyway someone could change the email address my account is registered with? Don't know who I should be asking?

Thanks,

Natalie

If you go into your profile, you should be able to change it yourself :)

It shouldn't lock you out. I think it sends you an email and you have to reactivate your account to prove that you're still you. I'm not 100% sure though. You have to give your password to do it though, so really you need to do it.

I'm around for the next ten minutes or so, so you can email me if it shuts you out of your account and I can reactivate it straight away. Would that work?

Coolio :) Good to know that *sometimes* the board works the way it's meant to!
