How Reunite.gg Works
You provide the memories. Reunite organizes the clues, searches public sources, reviews possible matches, and keeps the reconnect process consent-first.
1. Tell us what you remember
A case can start with an old username, game, server and approximate year. You can also provide screenshots, Discord tags, alternate usernames, mutual friends and small memories that help put the person in context.
You do not need to remember everything. A clear starting clue is more useful than inventing details you are unsure about.
2. Your clues become search signals
Reunite's homepage describes case details such as usernames, servers, dates, screenshots and regions being turned into search signals. The purpose is to narrow public leads while keeping the case focused on the old gaming connection.
3. Public-source research
The service says it checks public gaming profiles, username history, communities, old mentions and platform clues. Its research-system description emphasizes public information rather than hacking, leaked information or private databases.
Public-source research does not mean every piece of information about a person is fair to collect. The service's safety rules are designed to keep searches focused on legitimate gaming reconnection.
4. Human review
Reunite's homepage describes a human-review step for likely matches before a contact attempt. This is important because a similar username is not enough by itself to prove that two accounts belong to the same person.
5. Consent before reconnecting
If a likely match is found, the stated process is to contact that person first and ask whether they want to reconnect. The goal is not to hand over someone's private contact information without their agreement.
If they do not want contact, that decision should be respected.
What Reunite does not do
- No hacking or account access.
- No leaked private databases.
- No bypassing privacy settings.
- No doxxing or exposing private information.
- No stalking, harassment or repeated unwanted contact.
- No cases intended to locate or contact minors.
How long can it take?
Reunite's current FAQ says most cases are reviewed within a few days, depending on the clues provided and how difficult the search is. A review is not a guarantee of a match or a response.
What happens if there is no match?
The homepage currently states that if Reunite cannot find a likely match or make a valid contact attempt, the case is eligible for a refund according to its Refund Policy. No search can guarantee that an old friend will be found or will want to reconnect.
