He's working on it:
If you have not posted that addy elsewhere, it probably won't be accepted.
We don't actually accept the profile field address unless there's some sort of proof that it's remained unchanged, for that very reason.
I'm working on a new address-staking system which will automatically handle signatures, etc. Might have it ready by the end of the month if nothing else comes up to consume my time.
I don't understand why theymos said there in that quote that keeping IP logs is extremely useful for account recoveries. Most hackers will just use Tor or a VPN to log in, and most people will also use VPN and Tor to browse this site, that is, if they know what they are doing, because I doubt people use their real IP's here, a place with tons of scammers trying to dox each other and so on. (maybe im missing the point and he is talking about something else, I haven't looked at the context of the quote)
The recovery system is a mess, big backlog of people still waiting to get their accounts recovered after delivering sufficient cryptographic proof via signing a message with a BTC address as they request. Yet, 99% chances are neither theymos or cyrus will look at your thread.
I like how that system sounds, however it must be automated for account recovery or else hire more people to make the process faster.
Very few people use VPN/TOR, even if they do, they don't exactly know how to use it(like having your cookies kept idle or whatever that is). The hackers may use a VPN/Tor, but the old users who got their account hacked due to the bitcointalk hack probably didn't use any VPN/tor. I could be wrong, but people initially wouldn't have used a VPN/tor, because who would have thought shit like this happens on the forum.
