You're definitely one of the best developers I've seen out there for a long time, great job Dev!
And given how badly he was badgered as a scammer in the beginning, he has some serious fortitude.
That aside, @ElixirDev, there are now two accounts in the Discord channel with this handle:

I'm assuming you're neither but can you confirm?
I am both accounts; apologies for the confusion. I won't use Discord as an official ANN channel in general, so you can refer to this thread.
Interesting. I wasn't expecting that.

This is a good move by the dev to support the community who stood by the coin, rather than ignoring the situation. Still it can be a bit tedious for people who hold a lot of other crypto coins in that exchange. Too bad no exchange provide the "Sign message with address" functionality, but for obvious reasons indeed.
So it's more convenient! Why should I lose so much gas by removing other coins-tokens !!! 
It may be more convenient for you but it certainly isn't safe. Yesterday, I read a thread in the Meta section by someone who got scammed by another BCT member who forged an escrow deal one of the most trusted members on this forum using a photoshopped image. So, your convenience will have to take a back seat this time.
As for losing gas, which I'll admit
is an issue, I'm fairly certain the only reason he wants people to send out their coins before giving him control is so that you won't assume he's trying to steal them. Feel free to leave them in there if you trust him so much even though I doubt he'll go ahead with the
"operation" to avoid the very real threat of liars claiming he stole their coins and demanding compensation.
