	Anyone used temp bogus mail addresses for backups accounts? You're fucked. Quote: As part of our effort to keep people's game accounts secure we have reset the passwords for all game accounts that have not been logged into in more than two years. Your game account and all of its data remains intact! In order to log in,you will need to reset your password through the Forgot My Password reset procedure. To further help protect your account, we also recommend that you regularly update your password details, and never share your password with anyone.

	Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger. We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

	Oh fuck. Well fortunately its only accounts that haven't been logged into in 2 years... which means I've definitely lost a mule account. Way to go, SSG!

	I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.
