If there’s something we’ve missed or forgotten, please contact us. We are always happy to help.
We are currently working on automating this process by linking user accounts between the Ancient-Origins.net main site and the Member Page. However, until then, we need to apply this benefit manually.
In order to receive the benefit, please email [email protected] with your registered username or email on Ancient-Origins.net and ask to see reduced ads. After we’ve updated the settings, you will see fewer ads on Ancient-Origins.net as long as you are logged in.
Just go to the login page from the top menu options and select 'Request new password'. Enter your username or email address and you will receive an email with instructions on how to reset your password.
