Locked out of my handle

I'm Susan Davis, an old contributor from before The Great Crash. When I try to get known, it tells me that my handle is in use, but it's not attached to the email address that I used when I got known back then, and there aren't any forum posts or edits from anyone else claiming to be me. Could I please get this reset so I can get back in for real?

Are you trying to log in or create a new handle? Make sure you're using the right function.

Hum. What goes wrong when you try?

The password doesn't match the one I set years ago, and it claims that my handle A) exists, and B) doesn't match either of the email addresses I would have set it to.

That would require an account reset. But I can't find IP addresses of Susan Davis.

The address probably got deleted in The Great Crash. Does that mean that there's no Susan Davis there at all? And if not, then why can't I Get Known as me?

No, it means that your old account has been unused for too long. It can't be recovered from the moderator tools.

That said, does the email now work, ~Yes That Susan Davis?

Also, moved the topic to Tech Wishlist.

No, I'm still unable to reset a password for Susan Davis.
