Justice is getting the money back, and extra at this point.

I respectfully disagree. Not exactly sending the right message is it. "Hey hackers, these jokers at the bitcointalk forum are pushovers! Hack the shit out them (several times), but as long as you concoct some barely feasible story and hand back a portion of what you took, you get to keep the rest with no consequences!"

Yeah, awesome.

Exactly. Mybitcoin should've been the first and the last. I had no money in Bitcoinica (and I consider everyone who had to be naïve) but I strongly want Bitcoin to succeed. Thus, my motivation is in making sure scammers stop their bullying of my playground.

This tells a lot about your attitude. I hope it is a hindsight and you didn't assume Bitcoinica to be a scammer's product when it was launched.

I'm sure Bitcoinica itself has helped the community to grow (by providing a way to hedge and facilitate trading through the interest system), otherwise I wouldn't have been involved in the first place.

The community should encourage the creation of similar products with better security in place (especially crypto-based security, like segregated accounts).

Bitcoinica was great. The kid running it with a fragile ego wasn't great.
You sure showed those intersango guys that they weren't as good as you.
