Original account has disappeared yet remains on database?

Er yeah so this is a weird one.
About a year ago now, when Crysis 2 first came out, I created an account on gamesas forums and played the multiplayer with that account, I have the confirmation emails from gamesas to that account. Shortly after playing the multi-player I was annoyed that Crytek would allow, or not think of, such a ridiculous degree of hackers. I think everyone remembers when Crysis 2 launched that it was a rare occasion not to be on a server with a wall/speed/god hacker.
So anyway, I stopped playing Crysis 2.
Yesterday I just so happened to be lurking on these forums, and bored, so I decided to re-install Crysis 2 in the hope that the anti-cheat system actually works and to check out the dx11 pack.
At the log in screen I type in my details, and am refused. Interesting, I thought- maybe I forgot the username.
So I try every username I've ever had- there's only about 7 variations so I can remember them all.
Then I click "forgot password?" and enter my email address to which I get the message (I'm paraphrasing here) Oops! That email address doesn't exist.
Well that's strange because it does, and I have a gamesas account with that email address. Yet it says it's not in use/doesn't exist w/e. AND YET when trying to create another account with that email address it says it does exist. So mods, please- wtf is going on? I wasn't exactly a high level, but I had a fair bit of the perk trees unlocked.

TLDR: Email address comes up as non-existent when trying to retrieve password, yet when creating account email address is in use. Help from mods would be much appreciated.
Peace, cheers and thank you in advanced.

If you think that Crytek improved the anti-cheat system, you couldn't be more wrong. No point in playing it. Less players than a month ago, more cheaters..
