    Parental email on an old side?

    I have an account I made when I was very young. It has a lot of sentimental meaning to me, and is full of old writings and drawings and such. It was the account I used to play with my dad way back when; and he's no longer around.

    I have the old password and birthday; but it was part of the 2012 data breach, so the password was reset. Digging deeper, I learned it had a parental email attached, despite me having my own email at the time. I used my dad's (I recreated his email lol), and that wasn't quite it. I've used every one I know--I'm really stuck and it's old/inactive enough to purge.

    Do you have any tips for getting back in?

    Edit: I do not actually know if it's my dad's email or not. I tried to move an account to that email in the past and it failed because it said that email has "bounced" in the past. Is this because the account was purged and reactivated? Can this be fixed, and how?

    If it's a hotmail or yahoo email account sometimes emails will bounce or fail to be delivered for no reason. It's really annoying.

    Hotmails seem to bounce 10% of the time I've found
    Yahoo is usually good

    @(you need an account to see links) @(you need an account to see links) It's a Yahoo account, which is the strange part.
