How might I check my creation date for my MineCraft account? (No, not the forums account.)
I know for a fact that I first started playing during the 0.25 release in 2009... but, I would love to find an exact date. This is out of simple curiosity.
Before you all start giving advice, please read this:
-------------------------------
- I have never used the Web Launcher. I had no idea that there was such a thing for Minecraft.
- The first time that I downloaded the client is not on record. I have changed computers so often, and the original PC that I first played on, I no longer have access to. It is long gone.
- I do not have records for my purchase. It never occurred to me that I might later need these records.
- I do not have access to my email that I registered the account under. The email in question is a very old Yahoo Email that was deleted by Yahoo, due to inactivity. It is completely unrecoverable.
-While it may be possible to recover certain deleted or inactive Yahoo Mail accounts, recovery is not possible if: The account was deleted due to inactivity (you must sign-in at least once every 12 months).
- I have not migrated my account to Mojang. I don't know if this is relevant, but I will never do this, without understanding its full functions, and features.
- I do not have any old world saves. Due to constantly changing computers, I never retained any old world saves that I first created.
- I made my first skin in February of this Year. Before that, I never changed skins. I didn't know how.
- I only recently joined these forums. I have played Minecraft long before ever joining these forums, so that won't help.
---------------------------------
So, onto the question then. Does anyone have any ideas as to how, or where I might view my Minecraft account creation date? Again, this is out of simple curiosity. I have no real need for this, but it would be a nice little fact to know.
I did start during the 0.25 release, in 2009 sometime, as I mentioned above. But I would love to find an 'exact' date. If any of you are wondering, or don't know where to find it, my Minecraft username is wisper75.
- I do not have any old world saves. Due to constantly changing computers, I never retained any old world saves that I first created.
I have changed computers so often, that I might have used nigh on 5,000 different machines since 2009. When I first created my account, it was at a Recreational Center for kids, called "The Boys & Girls Club of America." Obviously I wasn't a "kid" in 2009, but I was 18. And that is the oldest you can be, and still be allowed to use the facilities.
I guess I need to edit my original post, and say this.
I do not have the original launcher, nor do I have any way to check when, due to the first computer being at the B&G Club. As far as the Web Launcher... I had no idea such a thing existed. O.o So I guess I've never used that before. xD

It's under account info on the mojang website. Login there and go to the account tab. I don't remember the exact route to get there. It should list the exact date you purchased minecraft.

Yes, hello again. You could probably get a rough date from looking at the calendar and thinking when you played Minecraft and correlating that with the time 0.25 was out. (Wow, that is a very long time ago) You could also go back to B&G if you are that curious.
Another way you could do is check for the second computer you played it on, if you have it. In the end, it would probably be more work than yield, though.
The 0.25 version was on september 3rd, 2009. Although, because of the gap between the two updates, I am unsure of then I started. Looking at a calendar would not help me.
As far as going back to the computer I started on.. I'm afraid that either you did not completely understand, or I did not explain it well enough. I created the account on a Computer at the B&G Club. The computers that were once there, are no longer in existence. Besides, even if they were still there, I would not be allowed inside the building, because I am 22 years old. It is a "Childrens" Recreation center. The oldest you can be, and still use the facilities is 18 years old.
And the second computer I had, was again, not my own. It was a computer that one of my foster parents had. I was allowed to play games on it. This computer also no longer exists. Nor does the 3rd, 4th, 5th.. and so on.

As I stated, I have not migrated my account. And the email I have registered (As I also stated) I cannot access.
Please read my post in its entirety next time. Thank you.
I don't mean to sound rude. I'm sorry if I come across that way. I am just very blunt, and I get straight to the point without dithering about other things. =/

Migrate your account then. You sound pretty desperate to figure out when you started playing. So I suggest doing that.

.... You know, I'm going to go ahead and leave this thread alone now. People continue to give me answers that are completely redundant. And if you guys had read everything I typed, instead of skimming, or whatever it is you did, maybe you would have actually helped me out. (Excluding Lekrosa)
As it is, this was a question brought up out of curiosity, and boredom. Thank you to everyone who did give an honest effort to help. Namely Lekrosa.

Just a note, I read your whole post and your comments.
Well... aman said it. The only way to see when you created your account is to migrate your account and check there. You could try making another email and contacting Mojang support, explain your case. If the Yahoo is truly unrecoverable I'm sure you could work something out.
That is if you purchased the game right off, payment records should be there as well if you end up getting it migrated.
And if you have inhibitions about migrating it, it's completely safe. Mojang IS the company who made Minecraft, after all, so of course it's safe. So, if you really want to see the exact date you bought the account you'll have to migrate it, in the end.

You can try to contact moneybookers or payapl to see what day you purchased it.
