Account Recovery

[exapto_returns]

Hey there,

My account was hacked back in 2013. I wasn't consistently on Sythe, so I hadn't paid much attention, but I had requested a ban as quickly as I could to protect Sythe users. I also guest posted under RealExapto to get my account reinstated but it was so long ago I don't recall what happened after - and I'm still banned so I'm assuming that I did not act on R's offer to reinstate my account.

I've recently began getting the "Sythe itch" and would like to come back under my original account. To my knowledge, when I guest posted under RealExapto, there was no scam reports or anything against my account to prevent it from being reinstated (can't find that guest thread anymore bc not a member).

R banned me as requested in thread Ban Me Hacked

I don't believe I have access to the original Skype account anymore (I can check) but I should have access to the email (original, not sure if the hacker changed anything).

Thanks for taking the time to read this. Always loved Sythe. Cheers!

 

Hey exapto,

I first need you to post from your home IP address and provide the registered email address.

Secondly, the account is quite old and has limited information for me to verify your identity. Please provide anything you can to connect you with the account. Feel free to go through old posts and look for a connection i.e real name posted somewhere

Gen-

Thanks for replying to the thread. Here is the info you requested.

• I’m posting from my home IP
• Full disclosure: Before deciding to recover this account, I made a new account last week (you can IP audit to check). I understand the rules of zero engagement on multiple accounts - I just want one account, so if this recovery is successful we can PM on what to do (I know Sythe doesn’t delete accounts)
• Email: [redacted]
• Ability to verify: Project World ~ HD 562 Development Server - Free For All!!
• The above thread has an old link to exapto.com- a domain I own - I can create an html file to verify any type of code you want me to on site (e.g. exapto.com/sythe.html with text “Gen is gay long live spam forum”) in order to show ownership

Thanks again Gen! Anything else that I can do to help verify I’m more than willing. Cheers!

 

Are you able to provide the exact donation dates/proof of donation on exapto?

Man Gen, making me work!

Donation should have been made through Sythe via @The Black Tux , see below details (please redact to protect the bond holder’s identity):

I THINK this is the transaction. If this is not correct I will look again to check but I am stretching my memory here since it was so long ago. Thanks!

 

Doesn't seem like that's the correct information/date. Can you please provide the correct information? Do you have any proof of payment?

Feel free to redact any details.

Dug a little deeper and found this thread: https://www.sythe.org/threads/1523248/about-time/

It was definitely not a PayPal payment as my PayPal goes back to January 2013 and the timestamp for my Donor Lounge post about getting donor status was 1-27-2013 (I do not see a 1-27-2013 transaction). It must have been an RSGP payment. However I am confident it was @The Black Tux who handled my donation.

Is there any other way I can verify? I provided the email tied to the account as well as my domain referenced on Sythe (which I can verify ownership of, that hasn't changed). Thanks again for working with me to get this resolved.

 

I've added your discord AnterosRS#9830, please accept the request so we can communicate there.
