Old forum/New forum Username

#1
Hello! I had the account Ragnar Ulfson on the old forum, but never got an email about the change, and could not sign up cause my user name was taken, but apparently not my email, since I was able to use it to make this account. I saw on the old boards, that I was to post here, and have my accounts merged?  I appreciate your time, thank you.

Did you check the email the old account was registered to? That is the one my email went to.
Worst case scenario it was sent to your spam folder though, so it was certainly lost...

Welcome to nTFF!

The reason you can use your email on the new form is because only the public details of accounts got ported over, not private details like passwords and email addresses. As such, the nTFF ported accounts are no email set until you set one. Accounts created latter via forum registration (such as your Ragnar Ulfson1 account) will have an email set as part of registration.

When your accounts get merged, make sure the correct email address is still set. We've had a few people find themselves locked out of the their nTFF account because they didn't set an email address for it.
