  I want to kill this lordgek2 account so that I am free to link the associated email address, (email visible only to moderators and staff), to my lordgek account. How can we do this? I have long lost access to the original email listed with my lordgek account.

  Just to make sure I understand, you can still access the lordgek account, but the email address connected to it is not in your control. You have access to the lordgek2 account and email address, but you can’t change the email address on lordgek to the email address on lordgek2 because it’s in use.

  If that’s the case, the way to solve this is to get a 3rd email address. Change the email address for lordgek2 to that new (3rd) address. Then you can change the address on lordgek to the preferred one.

  Let me know if you get stuck or if you need more specific instructions.
