I was browsing the wiki today and saw this message posted on the first page:
If you forget your password, [SIZE="4"]do not use the password reset form on Nexon's website[/SIZE]. It is not sending out emails but it will change your password. The result is you will be completely unable to login to your account on the website and in any of Nexon's games.
[INDENT]If someone can guess your birthday and know your account ID they can use this to lock you out of your account. [/INDENT]
This probably won't affect too many people, but I figured it might be worth pointing out.

I didn't really care about this since most people on Nation probably won't be changing there password.
I saw this way earlier today but it wasn't worth posting to me :/

Well, I just posted this as a warning to others. Like I said earlier, it probably won't affect anyone. This is just to let people know beforehand.

So it's really funny to take away something from someone who spent a lot of time on something?
Thats like me taking away your internet.

No, the message is that you SHOULDN'T use the forgot password link to change your password. Otherwise the account with be locked out (unless your incredebly lucky and somehow guess the new password).

I already requested an email change with the form they provided.
They said they'd send me an email withing 2-7 days. It's been almost 2 weeks.
