Title: Old member cannot re-login into forum; no answer from forum admins
Post by: thoste on September 03, 2017, 05:45:38 PM
A friend tried to re-login into these forums after a long time of inactivity.

He got the following error message from forum software:

Sorry pstein, you are banned from using this forum!
Your account is locked because it sat inactive for years after the password hashes were leaked in 2015, and was therefore at high risk of being hacked. Email react-vdnp8@theymos.e4ward.com to get it unlocked.

Contacting the mentioned help email address and asking for re-activation does NOT help.
Most possible this email is dead.

Could forum admins re-activate the account for user "pstein" otherwise?

Thank you
