Hello,
I used to be an editor 13 years ago, and my account got inactive after 4 months of non-editing (due to several personal issues). I would like to file a reinstatement request now using a standard reinstatement form (http://www.dmoz.org/docs/en/reinstate.html), but the form requires a password, which I don't remember, yet I can not use a password recall form since the old email on file no longer exists.
Could someone advise me what to do now to get reinstated? My username was vlads, and I was editing this category:
Top: Computers: Internet: E-mail: Electronic Postcards: Occasions
which now is:
Top: Computers: Internet: E-mail: E-greetings: Occasions

Fixed the category links (the old category link is taken from the web archive, and the new category link is from DMOZ).

Not sure what happened here, I'm really sure I answered this thread... :oops:

Reinstatement is a security issue and we won't reinstate your account on the limited info given

Please contact me via http://www.dmoz.org/public/sendemail?editor=elper (Don't use any other method) with as much corroborative information as you can such as:-

Approximate date joined
Editor name (but not password)
Real Name
Original email address
Joining category
Additional categories gained
Roughly how many edits done
Approximate date of leaving and the circumstances

Convince me that you are who you say you are and I can reset your email address of record to one that works today. This will make it possible for you to request a password reminder and complete a reinstatement request form.

OK, your email updated to the one on this forum, and a password reminder sent, this should enable you to complete the reinstate form ... Bonne chance :)

Elper, I have the virtually the same problem so I am sending you my information via your contact form as well.
