I have these posts above scattered on bitcointalk for a few years.
every time I read about a hack it frightens me.
@ dragon002 did we ever do a deal?
did I sell or buy or escrow with you?
If we did I could try to verify your addresses you used with me if you control them.
I don't think we did, Phil.
I have sent a pm to two mods with a signed message from my BTC core wallet with the address I've been referring to in posts on this forum. One of the mods told me to send it to another... who himself has written in his signature "I'm not restoring accounts". Back to square one.
It's not the fact that I have to use another account that bothers me, but the fact that I had signature campaign running from my main account. And the status of the account matters a lot when you want to rack in extra coins. And that's regardless of the fact that my account got hacked in the first place (very likely after the forums got pwned).
At the end of the day it's the forum's fault I was hacked, THEY refuse to restore my account, and I have to pay the price. That's pretty lame.
