This page explains the situation regarding user accounts due to Grand Theft Wiki's move from Wikia.
We do not have access to Wikia's user account database. When we moved from Wikia, we could only copy the content. This means that user accounts have not been copied over from Wikia, and users need to create a new account.
I can't log in
User accounts have not been copied over from Wikia.
You will have to create a new account with the same name.
My username already exists
If someone else has used your username, and you would like to reclaim it, please follow these instructions:
- Create a new account on this site (using a temporary username)
- Log into Wikia and follow the instructions here so that we know that it's you who owns that account
- The staff will note your request and rename your user account here to your preferred username.
- If someone else has registered an account here using your Wikia username, they will be renamed
