Not able to log in to regular account, email used has been deleted due to inactivity

Posted under General

Cleared my cookies. When I tried to log back in to my real danbooru account, it said an email had been sent to the email the account is attached to. Problem is, it turns out the email I used was deactivated at some point due to inactivity. I checked on my phone, where I was also logged in, but the cookie clearing logged me out there as well, and I get the same "check your email" message.

What can I do? I know my password. Is there a way for me to prove I am who I say I am without access to that defunct email?

I know it's not the end of the world and that I can probably re-earn a contributor status if I started again, but I uploaded a lot of art and made a lot of edits/identified a lot of artist requests under my real account, and I'm proud of the work I did.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Do you still remember the deactivated email?
