You don't need to synchronize Bitcoin Core to sign a message AFAIK.

You could probably import the private key to Electrum and sign there, but that isn't necessary since it should work right away.

You should post the message here as well if you want DT members to tag the account. However, this may not be necessary as the account seems to be inactive since April 17, 2017 and thus there is no rush to recover it either.

It was a simple pass. But I remember email from forum that said that their db was hacked\stolen. Maybe its because of that? I checked seclog.php? and it just log for a day, and my acc was hacked in sep 2016.
