I have a question. I have two previous accounts with which I've published a few reviews (2-3 on each). However, I've been forced to create new ones due to login problems. Just the other day, I happened to log in to an old account(which is now seemingly working) by accident, and publish a review with that. My question is: is it possible to transfer the reviews(and points, if possible) into my new account, if I can somehow identify myself as the owner of all three accounts?

Can't you just copy and paste your reviews into wordpad or something, delete the reviews from your old accounts, and then copy and paste them back with your new/current account?

He won't be able to do all of that if he can't log in to the account(s), Muloc.

Under optimal conditions, I think that we can arrange something that will amount to a proper transfer. You must be willing to provide the names of the previous accounts, however--if the reason that you no longer use one or more of them has more to do with past shenanigans than with simple login problems (I'll likely remember you if this is the case), this may change things. If you check out, however, it shouldn't be too much trouble to pull off, though the reviews will be treated as though they were edits--meaning that they might not necessarily cut muster with today's standards.

PM me the account names, and I'll remove the reviews in question myself, and Durst the old accounts so that they'll be unusable in the future. You may then resubmit them under HeidraCatharsis, whence they'll be evaluated (and rewarded) as though it were the first time you had submitted them, which should account fairly for the points involved. I'm not going to require that you jump through hoops to prove your identity here, as a lie would be apt to be patently obvious, given the conditions.

In that case I don't get this part.

They are working now, both accounts.
Nightgaunt, I've sent you a PM for further discussion on the issue.

just points... what's the matter? I thought that the objective of a review is to describe an album not earning points... :s
