I've forgotten my old account name. Tried hard to remember it but to no avail. Anyone any suggestions? (And please don't mention drinking less).

Gingko Biloba is supposed to be good for the memory.

In all seriousness, if you can't remember your account name, if you can remember your PlayNC Master Account name, you can find it there. Otherwise, you can contact customer support with a serial code you had applied to your account (e.g. box version of the game) or other identifying information.

I must admit I had to Wiki, and as such believe the 200mg pills would be the best bet.

Thanks for the reply. I am guessing there's no way around it other than to phone tech support as I know for a fact I don't have my old serial code. Just wondering what sort of info I could give them, since I don't remember the password for the account either. Here's hoping that a security question involves my dead cat.

Two comments/questions:

1. What account did you use to log onto the forums? Your join date says Dec2009 so I'm guessing you didn't create a trial account but if it's an old account then your forum login name should be your regular one.

2. Are you an EU member? If so then your account name may have changed with the merge.

Also, here's the information on how to contact support if you forgot your accoutn name:

This. Your forum account and game account share the same core name, so since you managed to log into the forums, you know your core account name.

I say "core account name" because some EU accounts will now have EU prepended (stuck on the front), so if you have/had an EU account, stick EU in front of the core account name and try that instead.

I'm pretty sure forum login and account name are the same as I had to use my EU-ified one to access the forum. Hence the no radio button anymore.

So if your in the forum that should get you in the game. Just make sure to enter the EU infront of your account name at the loginscreen since its quite easy to forget that the first time if you have had 'remember account name' option selected for as long as anyone can remember.

If for some reason that doesn't work I'd contact support because something iffy is going on with your account. Since you shouldn't be able to login to the forum without an active account and you clearly managed to do that.

Thanks for the replies. The account I have now though is a different one to the account I talk of.

Basically trying to remember my original account name from 2005.
