Forgotten Char Names!

Postby Relnor » Sat Aug 09, 2003 3:17 pm

Is there anyway to find characters whose names you've forgotten?
I have a bard i'd like to play but i forgot his name *panic*
Anyone else have this prob? (happened when i switched comps & moved a while back)

Nod! I lost my password to one of my characters:(
sucks huh!

Every log in and they dont except your password, then you find out you are logging in as someone else??? Someone you dont even know at all. That happened to me, I thought my name was bla bla, and it wasnt, but I was so sure!!! few days later I see the name running around and it hit me!

Once you've exhausted your own resources (looking at your sojourn files, trying to remember, whatever), there are a couple options as I see it.

1. Ask your friends who you may have grouped with if they can remember. If you do that and come up emptyhanded, you could talk to me. Tell me as much as you can remember about the character (class, race, aproximate level, name starts with a _, etc..) and I can come up with a list of possible names.

2. The gods may keep logs, one of the logs may contain a list of every, or recent, connections, including character name and host. A grep of the log with your host as the search argument may yield a list of your characters. Finding a staff member with access who is willing may prove quite difficult on this mud though.

I have never had this problem because I keep accurate records of my characters. This can be easily done by making a text file on your computer named "sojourn characters", and each time you make a new alt, type his name in the file, as well as the password.

Or do what I did. Each time you make an alt create a new icon for it in your client (if possible) under the name of the character. I do it as soon as I roll up an alt because I've forgotten names before... there's still a little illusionist out there somewhere with a name I can't quite remember. The time I rolled up a little mage and equipped it then forgot the name, however, that was the clincher. Luckily I had a keystroke logger installed on my puter and was able to pull that up and find where I'd typed the name to a friend in ICQ.
