Here and on another site(dead, old) that I own because I changed email address since then, and cant get the password reset email sent to me.

I cant login here, because i cant remember my password, and the email in the database, isn't the one i currently use.

same problem with my old board, how would I get my password back from that?

What is the domain of the old email account?

the domain is mnsi.net

I managed to get logged into my old site, I had to play with the database :)

My current email address is the one i used to create this account, which can be deleted once my old account is restored.
I also used the same nickname, minus the 2.

Another quick question while im here, My vbulletin license expired almost a year ago, Does that nullify my account info at vb.com? I tried to login in there, but my password was wrong again, and I have the same problem there as well, new email address so i cant retrieve my password.

anyway I was hoping to be able to login to vb.com and check up on my info there, and update it, but can i with no license currently? Is it possible to upgrade my (expired)leased license to an owned?

New email set on your old account.

Forum accounts on vBulletin.com are not closed or deleted when a license runs out.

To fix your vB.com account, it is the quickest if you open a support ticket.

Awesome thanks dude.

And the forum accounts dont run out, but what about the accounts to the members area.... obviously I wouldnt be allowed there, but when I go here http://members.vbulletin.com/lostpw.php?do=lostpassword I cant retrieve my password for the same reason..... bad email address.

Where would i open a support ticket for them?
