    Lets say that you have new recovery questions now, but someone else knew your previous recovery questions. Can that person use the previous recovery questions to recover this account if the person did not have earliest passwords to my account?

    yes that is possible, but jagex mainly looks at the ip of where the recover is coming from, for example, if i sold you an account that i made, i would be more likely to recover it even if you knew every bit of detail

    yes, all they really have to say their internet provider, and their ip, and Jagex will usually give the account to them.

    Previous passwords are a pretty important category; it would be difficult to recover without those.

    really? then your saying that if a friend knew my ip and my internet provider, he could pretty much steal my account? I doubt it mate

    Yeah it's possible to do it, though you have a small chance of it actually working.

    I don't think so, previous passwords are more important to remember though.
