apparently i have a trading post account, trouble is i dont remember starting one
i went to sign up to place a wanted ad just now and the email address i used is already in use!
cool i thought, ill just click the "forgot your password?" button and get the password sent to my email.
next page says

"It's easy to forget a password. Just fill out the form below so we can verify your personal details. We will find your password hint and send it to you instantly via email."

the field they are talking about is this

User ID/Alias:
Email Address:
Suburb:
Phone:

for ****s sake wouldnt it be easier to just remember the password rather than every other little bit of detail of the account??
