Was there an account purge?
It's been a while since I last logged in (probably when I posted this: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=86414) and I was not able to recover my account today.
Also, I was able to create an account with the same username as before, indicating my previous account was gone. |

Interesting... and disappointing.
 Also, explains why I had to recreate my account earlier this year. https://i.imgur.com/hdr74bY.png But, I am neither "dead" nor "fake". I'm a long-time Amiga devotee that, simply, has infrequent need to actually post on Internet forums. I guess I'll stick to the one where I'm welcome. https://i.imgur.com/XqyjEVN.png |

EAB is like any other forum, it only thrives through the interactions of its members, if your interaction is so infrequent, youre not really conducive to the membership. I would question just how much of an Amiga 'devotee' you really are on that basis. |

Well, 58 post in 13 years on the Amiga.org forum doesn't show real devotion for Amiga forums neither.

But the beauty of it is that EAB is not a closed platform like other forums, even if your account had expired, you can access/read all the info within and benefit from arguably the best information pool regarding Amiga that there is online.
If you really do post so infrequently, I don't see why it is a problem to register again, especially if your previous username doesn't get locked out. Now those two posts you made could have been used more productively/Amiga-ly, couldn't they?
