Lost my forum password

Hi there.

I played for a while during the release of Nostalrius, but had to take a hiatus due to work..
Now I tried to login to my forum account so I could update the photos and download links on the ubuntu tutorial I made but of course... I forgot the password to my "ozzky" account.

Maybe I'm blind and there's a "forgot forum password?" button somewhere on this site. But I can't find it!
I also read something about you having to contact a mod or admin on the forums (to get the new password), but I can't since this account I use now temporarily is so new(!?)

A bit of a catch-22

I don't see a password reset button on the forums either. It's not on the main page and it's not on the login page. The FAQ says it should be on the login page, but it's not there. If you login incorrectly, it links you to send an e-mail to the board admin.
https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&f ... @gmail.com

But since you've already created a second account, you might as well PM either Viper or Daemon now. You only need one post on the forums to enable PMing.

Ok. I've sent an email to the Nostalrius adress, Pm'ed two admins here on the forums (on the 20th) but so far I've got no response. I know you guys have a lot to do but for the love of god - a reset password function on the forums is quite crucial.

I did some digging into phpbb and found the actual page to get a new password, but it's not working. ucp.php?mode=sendpassword

It's no hurry, but I hope you guys at least have read the mail or pm so that you guys are aware of this issue.

Thanks
