The rovchris account is a hacked account.

It was mine I have sent a signed message to the mods (theymos) to claim it back.

Do not respond to rovchris it is likely to be a scammer.

-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----
This is to prove I am the owner of the account rovchris - new username chrisrov
-----BEGIN SIGNATURE-----

-----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Here is an unedited post with the address

i could verify the signature using electrum, however, could you please sign another message with a timestamp on it? preferably the current date and time of the forum (top right corner) to ensure that this wasn;t a prepared message or anything.

quote of the message in another quote:
Code:
rovchris; -40; -3.44; 1PcV3e3VqLeBNJnW1h5zw1mVFNHPBH4Ghd

IHp7hj22EWNbpjYxCXIqBOz7p9mG4C3slwnCh0Y7qJ5FjEFOXWgW1Yawg4SuirlPeSPpoLcsUeqHcYCw6+WyaQs=

I have never "address signed" before so unsure exactly what to do.

I selected address I paid from then pasted into the message

rovchris; -40; -3.44; 1PcV3e3VqLeBNJnW1h5zw1mVFNHPBH4Ghd

then clicked sign and it generated the code above - is this correct?



Yes, it is basically like that. The two videos linked post above are quite descriptive. Most probably you added a blank or tab at the end of the message, that' s why I suggested to put it in a 'code' block.

Please note that address signing is something you need to master for this group buy. Being it to refund the chips or to enter your shipping address - everywhere where you need to prove you are the rightful owner, you need to sign. So it is not a waste of time to learn it now Wink
