Let's say I forgot my key
« on: June 14, 2013, 09:35:41 am »
So, if - purely hypothetically - I had forgotten or misplaced my licence keys for AIW and all the expansions, what could I do to do retrieve them?

It depends on where you bought it from, honestly.  If you bought through a vendor that is not us, you just go to that vendor and typically it's right there in your account.

If you bought from us, you just send a note to arcengames at gmail dot com, noting what email address you bought the game with, or your name, and we'll send you the keys.

Actually we get like 5 of these a week, you'd be surprised.

Well, it was so long ago I actually no longer remember where I bought it from.

...but probably just from the most directly accessible store. Now what is this cloudflare business and why can't I see the email address?

Why does everything have to be complicated?
I think I'll just buy the game again. Not because I have the money, but because you deserve it, you cutthroat scoundrels, you!

Cloudflare is a security thing that keeps out spammers (and does a really good job at it), and which also notifies people when it can't get to our site because Rackspace is having a blip.

Can you see the email address now?  I fixed it for you.

Anyway, support is always appreciated, but really you don't have to buy it again if you don't have the money in particular!  You already have the game, so just shoot us an email!

Sent you a mail.

Well, whether you can get the keys back or not, I'll buy the game again. If the old keys can be retrieved, I'll give the spare ones to my brother. Must've been his birthday one or two weeks ago, anyways :P

Hmmm, doesn't look like your e-mail came through. Odd. Let's try this, if you would, send me a PM with the address you would have purchased the game with, as well as your real name, and let me see if I can find your order.

Nevermind THAT, I just found everything but Acient Shadows. It was on Gamersgate.

(I think that's even what I made my GG account for.)

Acient Shadows I bought from you guys, though.
