I have changed my rating for neutral for now and hope you guys work something out then. To me, it sounded like you were unwilling to hand the account back without demanding full payment.
Hi Blazed
We are trying to sort this out now.
The issue was that he was refusing to give a signed message until recently, until whywefight persuaded him to give one.
Thanks

Also I want to point out that (as explained in the ann) this was due to my misunderstanding and inexperience with using digital signatures to prove account ownership. I thought both were supposed to be blank messages and saw this as a giant security risk.
Whywefight helped me realize my misunderstanding and I promptly provided a signature on the 27th. Also posted in the ANN.
Now if you'll excuse me for a few hours I'm going to bed stressed and irritated about this for the 12th (13th?) day in a row.
