(2022) Lost my account of 18 years. Help me cope.

Original Post

I bounced a check to Jagex (inadvertently) and I probably got banned for it. I need an authenticator that was registered to an email I can't access anymore. So I think this is it. My account was 18 years old. Almost like a death in the family. My account wasn't elite by any means. But it truly feels like the end of an era.

Solutions are welcome but I am just looking for a reason to start over again. Maybe some stories about how you had to completely start over?

Sounds like your account maybe frozen until the membership used, that you "bounced" is paid. This article may be of use: https://support.runescape.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360000940597-Unpaid-balance
