Account linked to email which is no longer accessible

Hi there,

I had an account here from a couple years back which was linked to my old college email. That email address has since been decommissioned, so I can't use it to reset the password so I can access the account. Is anyone able to help me recover that account?

Thanks!

Email is required for account access. Check with your college, they might give you access for a short period so you can transfer it to a gmail account.

Hey, was going to post this from my account that I recovered, but got the error below. It seems as though I can login, I just can't post from it?

Forbidden.__myemail__: Email does not exist. Anti-Spam by CleanTalk.

was going to say:

"Hey Wargrimnir!

Thanks for getting back to me (it's Nidge from above). I was able to access the account via finding the username! If I understand you correctly, I can continue using this account, I just wont ever be able to change its password or migrate the account to a new email without access to my old email?

There's no way for me to access the old email, I just have the email history ported over (which is how I found the username)

Thanks for your help!"
