    Unless you have the email and some information on the account, you could be out of luck. Nexon Support has to have adequate knowledge that the account in question is yours before they initiate any sort of recovery. This is to protect players against any sort of potential issues with their accounts.

    If you can work out more information about the account and prove it's yours, send in a ticket. If you cannot find this information, nexon may ask for Identification.
    Give them information like purchase history, such as if you used a paypal and what paypal you used, the names of characters on the account, when you created the account. If you can prove its your account, they may be able to help you. Provide screenshots of your account as well and explain thoroughly that you've lost the email accociated with the account and have forgotten the password to your nexon account.
    If you can remember your email, even if it's not 100% correct, try to guess and provide it anyway, it might help them find your account.

    In the future, don't use "throwaway" information because it doesn't do anything in your favor. Because of this fact, the odds of you recovering your account are very slim.

    Since accounts are virtual property, should Nexon accidentally give access to the wrong person, this could potentially involve them having to turn to their legal team; companies prefer that their legal teams earn a paycheck without having to do an ounce of work. What this means is you would have to absolutely prove that you are the owner of the account. If there is even a shred of doubt then you will be SOL. In other words you will not be able to prove it so that Nexon won't be taking any chances legally. Therefore your only recourse is to remember your log-in information. If you can't do that then all that's left is to move on; as you said the accounts weren't particularly valuable anyway.

    It doesn't matter. As Helsa said, it would be a legal matter if said account was given to you when you aren't able to prove it as yours. You have to be able to prove it to be yours. Since it wasn't a very valuable account, maybe your best course of action would be to start anew. You could try Customer Support, but just don't be surprised if they come back saying they can't help you. =T

    Writing it down and keeping it somewhere safe will also help you in the future. This is true with e-mail addresses too and past passwords, if you don't have a means of confirming identity via text on your phone or an email, keeping a log of past passwords sometimes will help too.

    New players get a lot more benefits now than they did five years ago. Sure it sucks because of all the time you invested but at least now you'll know what you're doing. And don't forget the email this time :(

    This too, you should have a pen and paper for your very info needs.

    Your English is fine.
    Times have changed and due to internet security Nexon generally asks for proof of your identity to recover a lost account due to loss of log in credentials.
    Entering a Karma Coin code still counts as a transaction and will be recorded on the account, but since you can't prove your purchase because you bought it with gold ingame then it can't help you. I assume you were young then and don't have very much information that you could use to get the account back.
    Sabina no longer is a part of the Mabinogi team, so that screenshot wont help you :<

    It seems you wont lose a lot if you start over, you can easily regain those pegasus pets and leveling is much easier now! You will also be provided with a pet broom right at the beginning with a new account. Honestly you should start fresh! That way you dont have to worry about de-ranking fighter, and you'll get all those Pegasus back in no time.

    You will get a broom, eagle, and horse provided you do not skip tutorials or generations. :3

    I asked Nexon's Customer Support just to update my e-mail address to a new provider, and they wouldn't lift a finger to help me without me uploading a government-issue photo ID to somehow prove the account was mine. Even though I posted the ticket from my logged-in account.
