I would imagine that this is the reason we needed to enter our email when registering but beyond that i have no clue.

In game I'm afraid it's just popz who can do it at the moment. We're looking into getting an easier way for this.

You can't get your old password back, it's hashed so it's a one way process. You could have one of the people who have access to the database (namely the SQLite command line program), put a temporary new password on for you. This was going to be automated and was why the registration email was required.

I made a password recovery script with php that checks email and ip then it'll allow you to make a new one.
