That's not much use on Grindr. Depens on which part of the "Never be a giver or receiver' you wish to apply.

I've lost access to my email account. How do I change the email address that notifications are sent to, please? Can't find it under "Profile". Thanks. If you're using Desktop version: Look at the bottom right hand side of your screen. There is a little task bar with 3 icons: 1) switch account 2) switch forum 3) account settings
If you click on "account settings", the one on the right looking like a "cog wheel", it will take you into your Proboards Account settings. 3rd one down is "email". If you click on "edit" next to it, you can change your email.
It will ask for current email, new email and password. I believe the password it refers to is your forum password (i.e not email password).
BTW Underneath that you can also change your forum password too (4th one down). If you're accessing the forum then it's highly likely your forum passowrd is saved within your browser settings (Chrome, Firefox etc, and you should be able to check your forum password in your browser if forgotten)
Let us know if successful or not. Long time since I did it

Ayg pm sent, when you log in here, it doesn’t ask for email, just user name and password, on login, you should get a notification you have a pm, if not just go to messages manually, I have sent you the email that’s registered on here, jeez some of these mods can’t see the wood for the trees.

AyG's issue is he has lost access to his email account. As you say you don't need that to sign in, and can sign in with 1) userID or email account + 2) forum password
but if he wants to access his email account or see any notifications sent to his email, then he needs his email account password I lost track of the op. Yeah I just get notifications as a number above my profile tab. No idea what my email address is.
If you click on "Profile" in green text on the orange menu bar near the top of the screen = after "admin" and before "bookmarks" = then you can see your own profile. Over left hand side of the screen you can see your email.
---------------------------------------------------
AyG,
BTW Another way to get into the Proboards screen is go into your "Profile" as above. Then select "Personal" tab then click on "edit" next to email on LHS.
It actually says edit who can see your email, but if you click on edit it will also take you to the Proboards screen I mentioned in my post above
It's a slower way than just clicking on the cog icon bottom right, but still gets you there

If he has forgotten his email password, they will send a temp log in number to either the back up email address or to your mobile phone. Use that to gain access then rest your password.

Has the issue been resolved, if so, how? No resolution. I've lost the account permanently. The email supplier won't tell me why it was blocked, and will not agree to unblock it. Looking on the Internet, I'm by far the first person this has happened to. Typical Teutonic ruthlessness. Particularly annoying is that if one sends an email to that account the message goes through without warning, so people using the now defunct address won't know I haven't received the message.

Ah well AyG, if push comes to shove there's always this option. If that also fails, well lunch is served.

Sorry to hear that, been there, it sucks. Tip, turn the coffee table in your front room upside down, and sticky tape your passwords etc to the underside. Take a photo and save them to your phone, sticky tape the passwords to the back of your fridge, etc etc. Married to a Thai woman, I now all about it, one tip, never let her family or friends offer to resolve the ploblem, they only compound it.

The problem with that is, your passwords are displayed on screen as an x or *, with only the last letter visible. My tip for AyG, get drunk and fire up the computer, he will go into autopilot and type the password without even thinking about it.

I can't remember my password which is why you will notice I am never logged out even when I'm not here.
