Warhammer site password

[Tali]

Hi

I've finally been able to get on to the site to create an account and it looks like I already have one (I thought I did!). I believe this as my usual user name is take and my usual nick name is taken. I suppose it's perfectly possible for both to have already been taken but find it to be unusual.

Is there any way to retrieve my Warhammer web site/beta account password?

Thanks, Tali.

Password retrievement

I have registered my beta account, and finally i got confirmationmail, and the link in the mail even worked nicely.

Now i cant log on to the patcher, since it wont recognise my password. Im quite sure about my password, but.. maybe my hand has been missplaced on the keyboard or... well... I could very much use the same feature as you. A forgotten password retrieval option (why else we we supposed to put in security questions?).

The feedback from the patcher, when entering wrong info, is to contact a servicerep.. but there doesnt seem to be a way to do that atm.

Any ideas?

there was a password reminder but it went down with the account center earlier in the week.

I'm assuming it'll make a reappearance soon.

Till then - to help you try and remember your password would have had at least 8 characters in it, two lowercase, two uppercase and two numbers.

e.g. abcdEF12

Failing that, if you register a new email address somewhere free (might be best to try something other than hotmail) you can register with that.

I definately failed on the 2 capital letters, though it let me through anyway.

I was annoyed enough about the 2 digits. Why is it someone has to make strong passwords stronger? Its getting impossible to remember those things. I already have a strong password that I use for games. Now because Mythic wants to be safer than for example my bank, they want an extra digit, and an obviously also an extra capital letter. This means, I must make a new strong(er) password to add to my password collection. Now i have to write it down, because its too hard to remember... which again completely destroys security.

I bet most password problems in MMORPGs is when players share their passwords. And strong passwords wont do anything to help that.

(Sorry for "changing" subject... i couldnt help it

BTW. Thanks for the reply. I have registered with a new email, and awaiting a new confirmationmail

Didn't realise about the caps thing. I don't really want to create another account, I hate being messy like that. I'll wait another day or so to see if the password thingy comes back and create one then if I need to. Thanks for the hint though

ehh? no

the only requierments on the password was to have atleast 2 numbers in it and atleast 8 charachters

when i signed up it definitely required two uppercase characters

I can confirm this, my password has 2 upper case letters which I would never use unless forced to.
