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.

I have trouble connecting the information needed to reset. There's no IP overlap.

Hi, this is something that has cropped up as a result of forgetting my password, so I suppose here seems the most appropriate place to post. My previous handle was Pattyunknown but I had to delete cookies due to a problem on another site and forgot my password so was locked out. However, I prefer this handle much more - and I know you're only allowed 1 handle per IP. Would it be possible to delete my old one?

In uffish thought
You're allowed up to ten handles, actually, so there's no problem. 
You are unable to create more than one handle per IP.
I think that mods can override the account restrictions, but not delete accounts (as opposed to their passwords)

Oh, so it's not actually an issue? (I assumed both my handles were on the same IP which was the problem)
If so that's a relief!

@MrLthebetrayer: You're obviously on that account, so there's no action for us to take. You can go to the password change form, as noted above, to copy your current password.

Can you please reset starsreachdown? It's my sister's account and she thinks she screwed up her password because she can't log in.

My handle was Sarcasm Queen, and, as like all the people here, have forgotten my password. Help please!
