How to recover your old username

I received a question about how to recover an old username. Here’s how to do it:


1. Sign up for a new account


Click the "Register" button in the top-right corner of the page.



2. Fill out the registration form


Choose a new username (for example, your old username followed by some digits).

Important: Be sure to enter your old username in the designated field so we can verify it.



3. Submit your request


That’s it! Your verification request will be processed as soon as possible.


Note: You may be contacted on the forums if there are any questions about your request. We will never contact you by email, as we do not store email addresses. Please check the forums occasionally for updates on your request.

4. Post in this thread


Make a post in this thread. This is to attempt to verify you are human.

Yes, I am working on account verifications at the moment.

Interesting about Imgur block - I was not aware.
