Changing account email address - Guild Wars Forums

Jebus · Jul 14, 2007, 10:30 AM // 10:30

I'd like to change my email address for my GW account, I followed the links in-game, but on the PlayNC website I can't find an option to change my email address, only my password.

Help is apreciated

Wrong

your initial email address for your login is now just that, a login name

you can change the email address on your account any time, but your login will stay the same

this is probably more secure, use an email address (a hotmail or whatever) then kill that email address and change the one on your account...

Mines a 4 year old email address now and it was last used to create my GW account and then brutally killed and a new one was added... but its no different to me having Lonesamurai as my login here and changing my email address here on the forum, they aren't linked

oh and stop being a naysayer, NCSoft deal with your account information, not ANet

So it's not possible to change that email address you log in with?

That's not true. I was able to change my log in email address quite a while ago. I remember having to go through a few hoops to do it, but it can be done. I believe I did it through the log in screen on the game.

Don't think of it as an email address, its just a log in that happens to look like your email address
