Ah, yeah I tried that but didnt have any keys that proved anything. With a little bit of detective work Im sure it could be solved if Theymos wanted to look into it but understandably isnt going to spend that kind of time on every jacked account.
Tried to buy it back off the hacker but no answer to any of my messages.
Oh well, cest la vie. Bitcoin is flying so I have other things keeping my spirits up
Theymos delegated account recoveries to a new team to speed things up.
We've streamlined our processes, and Cyrus has put together a team for handling these cases, so
account recoveries should now be handled at a reasonable pace again. Additionally, we will be
somewhat more lenient in recovering accounts without signatures, though signatures often will still be required, depending on the situation.
If you have a locked account, send a new email to the @bitcointalk.org email address given in your "account locked" error message. (The email address changed a few weeks ago.) If you were previously sending messages to me or Cyrus, send a new email to the address
here. We might try to go through the backlog of old-process recoveries in the future, but for now you should send new messages.
Sorry for the delay!
