    im not sure where else to pots this, but here it is.

    i seriously dont remember setting this account up, so it came as a total surprise when i received an email notifying me that i had tried to have my password reset.

    im all about emulation gaming, and considering the account name, it must have been me that set it up, as i know i would have chosen this name. but just to let people know, some jack ass at IP: 78.146.236.81 tried to reset my password. i dont know why someone would try to hack a fourm account on this site, but it happened.

    anybody else getting surprise email notices? and is there a better place to be posting stuff like this?

    Guy is called Bailer1, most likely he just thought he registered as Bailer and tried to do a recovery. Most of the time these things are accidents.
