Bobo and sgt, you're the best. Thanks!!

Thanks for your help Bobo, appreciate it

FWIW, I'm doing everything in my more limited green mod powers to verify IDs, but I am passing on accounts to you where it seems like the only way to help them is to poke around in their PMs. As much as I enjoy poking, that's just something I don't have the power to do.



Tuma, this will be very easy. Email me (sgtrj1@gmail.com) and answer the following questions:

We had a significant PM exchange a couple of months ago.

1) What was the substance of that exchange?
2) Who originally contacted me on your behalf?
3) What did I tell you I was going to do, and when?

Bonus if you can remember the joke/rumor you asked me about (I heard you were going to X, is it true?).

Thanks for all the help Bobo and RJ. Your thankless work will go a long way towards helping 2+2 get past this breach and back on track.

Unlike other horrible mods who shall remain nameless Dids.

Sent an email to SGT RG. Trying to gain access to my old account, jzieg2313. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Thanks

This is my original account but I would like access to my main username that I use, which is Poker Should be the same ip address but for the life of me I cant remember which eamil I used to create that account. Anyhelp would be appreciated. Let me know if more information in required.

Okay, I've worked through all of the email requests I got last night, forwarded the accounts I verified to Mat and Bob (who do the actual resets) and responding to people who need to provide more information for verification.

I'll be back in a couple of hours to resume account verifications.

Thanks for all your help. It's good to be back!

Hey guys, just posting here based on Sklansky's email.

Old username - gamble

Trying to get it back, have ID, etc, let me know...

Hello.... I received an e-mail from Mat Sklansky to post in this thread. My old user name on 2+2 is Sandwich.... The original e-mail address I used to open the account (in 2004?) has long been closed.
Help me get Sandwich back please?

Is SGTrj a machine or what?

Hello, my username is Soncy and I'm too stupid to change my email address when I get a new one. Can I have my name back?

edit: also too stupid to call my new name Soncy II

Mat,

Posted what I believe is a secure solution to identifying posters to be reinstated in a new mod forum thread, Restoring Accounts: NETIDME.

Apologies for the modroll, folks.

Not a problem

Guys, if you haven't done so already, email me (sgtrj1@gmail.com) with as much information as you can recall about the account you are trying to claim, including but not limited to:

Registration email address
DOB
Infraction history
If your account is linked via MP or fund transfers to an established poker site account (those threads/posts + a screenshot of you logged into the poker account)
Anything else you can think of, like a PM exchange you've had with me (if we've ever PMed).

If you have absolutely nothing else that could verify yourself, you can email Bobo Fett (bobh@twoplustwo.com) with a detailed description of previous PM exchanges (with whom, what you discussed, approximately when). This should be used as a last resort ONLY - we'll make every effort to verify your account without using PM history, as it's a giant PITA.

I just got back from the store and am going through the emails I've received since then. Please bear with us as we continue to work to restore everyone's accounts, there are a lot of requests.

Not trying to keep anything behind closed doors, I'm just dealing with all of the requests by email, because for a lot of people we are asking for stuff like DOB and what email they'd like the account to be reset to, and a lot of people don't want that published.

That said, there's no doubt you are Tuma.

An anal sex machine as I understand it!

Wow I haven't had a join date this old for a while. Didn't even know I had this account. Re my main account: I've fairly recently received a PM from Mike Haven (was a circular though) and had a PM conversation with a Stars rep. Also Gildwulf. Will a vouch from one of these be satisfactory?

SGT RJ - just emailed you back and copied my buddy Vin Pahuja as a reference.

thanks so much SGT RJ/Mat!

A vouch from Mike Haven would be sufficient in and of itself.

If you know anything about the account you're trying to claim, please email me everything you know (registration email, DOB, infraction history, etc) and we'll see if we can get you sorted out.

All right, good to be back.

Thx a bunch, SGT RJ and Mat.

Okay, I should be caught up on all the requests.

If you emailed me today and didn't hear from me in some fashion, send me a quick reminder. I was juggling a ton of issues at once and I don't think I missed anyone but you never know.
