Has anyone ever gotten an old account deleted?
Hello! I'm having a laugh because I just got an E-mail from neopets about an account I haven't logged into for probably 3 years because I forgot the password and never felt like sending the PW to my E-mail since it was a side account. :P "We're sending you this email because you haven't logged in to your Neopets.com account in a while. Unfortunately, that means your account will be deleted on or around 2010-08-17, along with your Neopets, your items, and any other account information. If you wish to keep your Neopets account (hooray!), all you need to do is log in to www.neopets.com with your username and password before 2010-08-17 and your account will be safe. If you'd like your account to be deleted (boo!), you don't need to do anything more. It will be deleted and we'll miss you dearly!" *lol* I'm going with the second option, I don't need that account. Has anyone else ever gotten this message?

As long as your password is correct, the bday is not needed. The only thing I havent tried is logging into an account by just entering the bday and no password. If you cannot log in an account with just the bday, then I do not know what they have the dropdown boxes for it, as I have entered my password wrong on several occasions and got those boxes, but always got in my account when I correctly typed my password in... I never did anything with the bday boxes. I only have one old account I can think of, whispering_acaras. Naturally I forgot the word. Mainly created when shops were used as galleries, but also created so that no one else could make a name similar to mine and claim to be me. However... Guess I should of made a pet with my name as well, because I found a pet someone made using my name... I hope its included with the purge, its akward having people name their pets with your username lol [font=Courier New] -------------------------------------------------------------- The STUFF - Mainly Codestones @ reasonable prices http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=whispering_acara&misc [/font]
