(Think I finally get your problem 0-0)
Congrats: You never actually lost your account in the first place! It's character deletion. Then you'll go HUH HUH HUH WAIT WHAT? (So here's the lengthy explanation of what most likely happened. Breaking it down into phases.)
Phase 1 - You created your Onigiri-exe account. This account is connected to the Onigiri server and has no email verificatrion or whatsoever. Similarly, it is not connected to Cyberstep at all. It's simply an account with characters
Phase 2.1 - So now you're liking the game and you create your Cyberstep account. Or so it seems. This Cyberstep account automatically connects to your Onigiri-exe account and "fuses" together. The two accounts are linked and will share similar email, password and characters. When you change your email in one of them, the other one changes too.
How do you know this actually happens?
When you buy Onigiri Coins, you buy it using your Cyberstep account. The Cyberstep general server sends this request to the Onigiri server, which communicates with your Onigiri-exe account to deliver it. Kinda explains the lag due to the transfer from one main server to another.
Phase 2.2 - You create your two characters along the way. Characters are avatars of yours which reside in the Onigiri server. They are connected to these two accounts.
Phase 3 - You reboot your computer and...Holy shit they're gone! There are two possibilities now.
1. Due to (unknown bugs?) reasons, the Onigiri server wiped your characters' connections to your own accounts. Now these characters are floating in...cyberspace (?) but you can't assess them. The server and cilent, however, thinks that these character names still exist and you can't re-use the names again.
2. Due to (horrible) reasons, the Onigiri server completely deleted your characters off the face of Cyber-Earth. Other people may have taken up your name afterwards. This is highly unlikely as your usernames are unique - Doubt anyone will take them.
Phase 4 - Now you ask: Why can I still assess the forums?
Well, your Onigiri account and Cyberstep accounts have not been deleted, only the characters attached to them. Hence, using these accounts, you still can use it/see previous actions.
Hope this clarifies everything!
