Did you perhaps set it to private?  I wouldn't be able to query it in
that case.  To regain access, you'd have to contact Fedora
Infrastructure at admin at fedoraproject.org

I would presume an account is required to prevent bots and such from
being able to affect Fedora updates.  I think that requiring an
account presents a reasonable barrier of entry for something of this
nature, without creating an undue burden.  Note that you can still
provide feedback to the package maintainer without an account, it is
only required to help get things pushed stable before the 7 day
timeout.
