I toyed with whether I wanted to make this change for well over a year because allowing users to change their email addresses (after having confirmed it via the registration process), implied I would need to confirm them again if you changed it in your profile after the fact...    ...but after much deliberation, I decided that's really unnecessary - the whole act of confirming emails during registration is solely to ensure the person registering is "real" and not a bot. Once you've done that - what do I care if you go and change your email address???

So - for those that have wanted it - have at it!!! It's available in your settings...

Oh cool, I actually don't have access to the email address I originally used to sign up for this site.

My email that I only ever used to sign up here was logged into about 2 weeks ago. I got the security warning emailed to another account of mine. It was for an alt account I made a few years back when I was banned. Who has access to the email database?

Only Trucks and myself (and Brett, of course) would have access to user info - but NONE OF US have access to passwords as they are stored encrypted. So, I don't see how anybody here on this site, could be involved with accessing your email...

I have an idea. 

Uh....   ok?

Your email account could have just as easily been legit hacked having nothing to do with this site.

This is not the VGChartz I know anymore!

Finally! Awesome! Thanks a lot!

Uh, yeah. Beats plain text for sure though, and I suppose I'm not exactly surprised.

Thank God. My registration email was my old college email account that I can't access anymore. Now I can finally change it.
