I've just returned after a somewhat lengthy absence from the game. I tried numerous times to login and got a variety of messages ranging from the "back in a few secs" to "user email does not exist".

So, I bit the bullet and created a new acct. Eventually I got in. I geniunely believed that my old account had been deleted, or had fallen into some form of inescapable chasm. But to my surprise it showed up on my Battlefield page! I discarded the new acct and tried a little harder to get into the old one.

Finally, success......

But. I seem to have a completely different CO than when I left. I'm aware that accts change hands and that explains that. But, I'm not even in the same alliance as I was last time I logged in. I don't know if either I've missed a few updates, my acct learned to play itself, or somebody hacked my acct and decided not to change the username, email or password. Can accts change alliances on their own?

I'm scared and a want a cookie.....

your account's alliance could have merged with another, and changed it's name...

For example, EPA joined TAF family, and EPA's old alliance ID had the name changed to TAAE...


which I thought epically silly, because EPA was nobody's training alliance... but meh...



So, yes, it is possible...

Here, have a cookie. :D


Are you missing a ton of things that you used to have?


like army size, lifers, AT, or naq in your bank?

There was a problem a while back during a major update,
where a lot of people's banks leaked tons of naq... #-o :smt091


Here, have another cookie. :D


And yes, Admin Jason had to ditch the old web hosting company in a hurry,

and move the whole game to a new company, with new servers...

and there are lots... weeks, of bugs to work out...


Here, have another cookie. :smt056

Makes sense... I was in EPA when I stopped playing.

Thanks for the cookies.

Howdy :D

Yeah, EPA merged with TAF and became our new TAAE because of the bigger bank. Check out our forum:
