Attention Massassi: I am an Idiot
2010-10-08, 8:49 AM #1
I changed my gmail password and then accidentally threw out the paper I wrote it on. I've had this account since gmail started. I suck.

You should get an elite hacker such as Jonathan`C to get it back.
Looks like we're not going down after all, so nevermind.

Look at the Gmail account recovery tools, you can get it back.

You should email Google for help. You should use your Gmail account so they know that it's you.

Gmail Account Recovery

Your options there:

Get new password via your backup email address.

Answer security question to change password.

??? - I didn't try that one.

Good luck.

My account name here is based of the fact that I was a CnC fan for a week.
My Gmail is "Forcetrekkie" (Which im honestly probably going to change.)

What in the hell does that have to do with anything?

Do you think it's helpful tips on how to recover my email account?

Do you think this is a helpful website? Or do you think maybe that it is a star wars video game forum filled with ***holes?

I found massassi to be very helpful, with only a couple of asteriskholes

Haha, in all seriousness thanks for trying to help me. I've got a request pending...basically if you forget your password and don't have an alternate email/secret question you have to fill out a bunch of information about your account. I'm trying to remember it but I can't recall too much (again, I've had the account since 2004 or '05) so I might be screwed.

Yeah I don't know, man. That seems like it's probably your only option. That troubleshooter is actually pretty sweet, though. It's not like the garbage one from the older windows help things where it would say "did this fix the problem?" and if you clicked no, you were basically on your own.

I felt this comic is relevant to the situation, expect the part where I remember the password.

Public Service Announcement: Does anybody remember who invited me to the Gmail beta back in the day? I definitely got invited by a Massassian on the forums, for some reason I seem to think it was Darth Evad or Happydud back in like '05.

I'm quite sure it was a massassian that got me into gmail too, no idea who.

Did you ever have the password saved in Firefox? Firefox can show you passwords it has remembered.

Does this mean we should hide our kids and hide our wives?

did you just call me gay?

Tracer is the manliest man to walk this earth. Women want him and men want to be him. Tracer must keep his manliness in check at all times in the chance that a woman finds herself impregnated by his sheer manly presence. He is most certainly not gay.

As for hiding the kids, though, well...

Under no circumstances does that make him straight. The manliest men often turn out to be gay. Women still want them and men still want to be them (except for the gay part).
