Can't change email address

I am trying to change my email address as the one currently on my CP is no longer active. When I put another email address (hotmail) that I have used in the past, it says “email address already in use”. I am thinking this is something that is tied into The Big Change as I may have been using that email address when I originally registered.

Can someone help me?

If it’s saying the email address is in use, then it’s in use – there’s another account out there with that username.

You can have multiple accounts merged into an existing account. See this topic elsewhere in the Help forum: http://chronicleforums.com/Forum/showthread.php?t=42625

Oh geeze. I had one alter about 127 years ago. I can’t even remember what the name of my alter was - it lived a very short life - one thread.

Hmmmmm… What to do what to do what to do… Suggestions, anyone?

Make another freebie email address and change it to that one. Then forward the email in that new account to your hotmail account.

Well, obviously you know the email address the alter is registered with… use the password reset function to get the username and a new password emailed to you.

Thanks for your patience Erin!

The alter was last used in September of 2003! I’ve changed email addresses and will just let that one die.
