Greetings. This is the thread for requesting assistance with recovering a TV Tropes account for which you have forgotten the password.
Before posting here, please note that Get Known has a comprehensive set of instructions for managing your account. To summarize, password resets are limited as follows:
- If you have an associated email address, use the Lost Password link on the login screen to request a reset email. If that doesn't work, post here.
- If you do not have an associated email address but you are still logged in, you can register an email address and use it for recovering your password.
- If you do not have an associated email address, and have not used your previous account since September 18, 2013, we cannot verify your ownership for technical reasons.
- To verify ownership without an email address, and if you have used your previous account recently, you should be logged in on the same computer and/or Internet connection that you most recently edited or posted from.
- It is not currently possible for moderators to reset your password or change your registered email address. As a last resort, you may use our contact form to send a message to "The Staff".
Thanks for your understanding.

Hey folks! I used to be known as Le_Commodore but a dimensionnal vortex destroyed my cookies and i can't remember my password anymore ! Could you reset the password for it ( and also for Pip Boy 3000 )? Thankee-sai
PB 3I cannot find any edit history by a Le_Commodore or Le Commodore. You might as well start a new account anyway, since underscores in troper handles are invalid and will block you from editing. As for Pip Boy 3000, aren't you editing from that account now? Why a reset? Just use the change password link from the knower form.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Okay sir, thanks a lot !
PB 3Hello, I used to be Clouds. Unfortunately, I didn't write my password down, so it was lost. Could somebody reset it for me? Thank you.
As I've moved since the last time I was logged in, my IP has changed. I hope that isn't any trouble.
I'm sorry to trouble you again, but I have forgotten the password to "Kangaroo".
EDIT: False alarm, just remembered it. Sorry.

Hello, I actually don't have a problem with my password, although I will admit that I actually came close to it but I noticed something, it says that you have to be "known" to post in this thread. If I had forgotten my password, I wouldn't be able to post in that thread so it seems to me kind of useless. You have to log in to post in this thread, but you have to know your password to log in. Sort of a catch 22 if you know what I mean. Is there anyway around that or would I be SOL if I had completely forgotten it?
Make a new temporary account, something like Temp Nasaniaru and ask.
Fight smart, not fair.I set up an account a few months ago- Capricorn. (Yeah. I know. I'm pretty uncreative when it comes to pen names.) Anyway, I forgot the password into my old account; can you help me out?
Thanks for the advise Deboss.

So my cookie quit on me and I didn't keep a record of my password. Could I get a reset on it? Is that how it works?
Was Dark Star 88 and cannot remember password for the life of me. (absent for quite some time). Help plz?
Did you change ISP's since the last time you edited, back in October? IP addresses no matchy.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Our ISP may well have changed our address (plus our modem went whack); and I'm at a school computer now.
Try posting here again from your home computer. Since we don't collect personally identifiable information, your IP is the only sure way to tell that it's you.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Will do.
Hi, I was once Sorakh Soruhi, but I lost the password to that.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"I was previosuly PhinbellaFanboy (Or it might have been Phine Abella i forget". But it forgot my password.
Please post from the same computer as the account you're trying to recover or I can't verify your information.
Edit: And, by the way, we can tell if you're a banned troper sneaking around a different handle. We aren't idiots.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"^^ Dude, you've been banned twice before, (or at least two other handles that coincidentally posted from the same IP and only that IP have been banned before.) Password resets are not a way to get around a ban.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.I however, really am Phinbella Fanboy. (No idea why he was being an imposter of me). And i am currently on a friends computer, and i was never banned
I've lost my password for my account Barthoze. Please reset it. I'm posting this message from my usual IP adress
