My main forum account is chaser15 and still shocked at what happened in my account just now. It got banned. Here's the story:
- I logged in at the forum
- Do my usual habit of posting. My first post for this day: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1220979.msg58407216#msg58407216
- After posting, I've noticed that my signature (I'm part of the Stake signature campaign) is empty. Thinking it's just a bug I check my Profile Settings and to my surprise, my signature space is really empty.
- I immediately copy the signature at the Stake Campaign and update my profile.
- After that, I checked my Post History, and to my surprise, I have a post there that I didn't do! The thread is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2647654.0
There's also a merited post by me that I didn't do (check the archive page). After I checked the unauthorized post, I immediately archived the page at the archive.is website but unfortunately, while the archive is ongoing, I immediately deleted the unauthorized post thinking the page was already a snapshot. Now I don't have the copy of that unauthorized post but it's all about an update.
I changed my password immediately but after confirming, boom my account got banned. Is changing the password not allowed for now?

- Is someone talented and skilled here can able to know the deleted post so that I can show the post I'm referring to?
- Is there a chance of unbanning accounts these days? I can provide all the information and proof needed to verify that I'm the original owner.
I don't understand how someone is able to know my password. As a forum Legendary rank and long-time internet geek, I'm not new to this security so I got shocked at what happened.
Many and big Thanks to those who will share their thoughts, views, opinions, etc. about this.
