We store your password in a manner that doesn't allow us to retrieve it for you.

If you don't remember your current password, you can try changing your password, or using the lost password link to send you a new one.

Best,
P.

I am hitting a brick wall with gmail as they ask for information to be faxed but don't give a fax number or they ask for a credit card to be used but don't give payment details!!!...I have even visited google offices in person to no avail!

Can you at least tell me what will happen to the page that is currently published? It has been inactive for many months now...will it be deleted after a certain time period of inactivity? I hope that this could happen as the email contact information on the blog is now useless! Please advise?

I recommend following through with that process.

The only way that we can restore access to the account is if we receive the request from the email address on the account, or if you registered long enough ago to receive an API key, we can also accept that as confirmation of ownership.

We've thought about the secret question thing but our experience dealing with people who lose their passwords suggests it wouldn't help.

Could also be done like hundreds of other sites out there where there's a secret question or something to be answered before the email is sent. (ie enter username, answer secret question, then email goes out about changing the password)

Maybe just ask for email address instead of username too, that way, I'll stop getting spammed with people requesting the password to my username. :P Not a big deal, yes, because nothing gets changed unless I click the link but it's quite annoying, especially, when like today, the emails come in German and it takes me a while to figure out what's going on or when, like today, the person doesn't get it and keeps requesting a new password because they're not getting an email.

I dunno, maybe I don't know anything, but it would be nice if this could be looked into. Thanks.
