Can you get banned for sending in too many password recoveries? So far I have sent in 20+ on one account (in the last hour or two) and have gotten a message saying "stop trying to get the account unless I can provide MORE information than I am providing right now" a couple of times. Anyway, was just wondering if this could possibly result in any major problems if I continue to do so.

Also, he account is an old one of mine, but somone cracked it a long time ago and I don't know the new recoveries or my old IP. I know the old password (there was only 1) and around the date when it was created. Do you think I have any chance? I know its not looking good after 20 tries.

I doubt you'd get banned because that would mean you can ban any account by sending in password recoveries, even if it's not your account. If anything, your IP will get blocked, but the account should be fine.

Just give them proof its yours*? The e-mail account it once bought membership with worked for me after i let my friend play my account for a year.

With only those two pieces of info and the amount of tries youve taken, I really really doubt you'll get it back.
Why the sudden interest in getting back an account that you lost so long ago? Just give up the account and its pixels.
