But, if you are sure you will never need this account anymore, and you want it to be destroyed as soon as possible, just ask a moderator on the chat.

How to retrieve my ChelonianGall password?

One of the requirement for ChelonianGall was to be as simple and non-binding to join as possible.

So we don't ask for e-mail addresses, phone numbers, or whatever, only a nickname and a password.

The counterpart is that we have no way to check the identity of an user claiming he has lost his password.

The better would be to not lose your password. But if it happens don't hesitate to contact [contact address not yet existing] and we will see what can be done.
