Hi

I lost my original user name "oxygen" in the hack in 2011. I was not able to provide the original email address I used to register the account (5 years earlier). You can see the user name has not been used or accessed since. Is there anyway you could give it back to me, you can clear out any messages or history etc.

Thanks!
