I finally got around to finishing the account center on the website and it is now available to all! What can you do is the account center?

* Lost Password Lookup
* Account Change Password
* Account Change Email

Depending on how things go we might add the old account status to the account center too. Unfortunately it is seriously server intensive so I'll need to find a dedicated server to set it up on, so no promises.

The Top Players section of the website has been reset and expanded upon. You can now see a list of the top 10 most popular towns and 5 most visited dungeons for the month.

There is also a patch being worked on of which some features are already active in Obsidian. I hope to roll out the entire patch along with posting a change log sometime this weekend.

Looks great, but IMHO changing E-mail address should only be done by
an admin, as now whoever guesses (or was given) an account password
can take over account too easily.

Well the account creation passwords we give out aren't guessable so if someone sticks to what we give them they should be good. If they want to change their password, they can, but I would hope they would make it something secure.

As far as giving out passwords, i'm the only one who can find out what someone's password is, and if you give your password to a friend....well that's your fault.

I think we'll stick with this setup and if we run into problems we can remove the feature. But I think it will cause more good then harm.

I've kept the same password that I was issued by BB in the beginning all this time... never had a problem with people messing with it.

But then again... who would want my crap anyway?

Try e-mailing [email protected], stating Your problem, account
name and prolly including what You want Your e-mail address, password
to be changed to.

However I dunno how responsive BB is, so You might also try sending a
PM to CyberVic on forums. Include all of the above too.
