Multiple reasons but most likely because it's a Spam Megathread™ that has served it's purpose and is now just people repeating the same thing reworded slightly hundreds of times.
2082  Other / Meta / Re: Recovering hacked account on: May 08, 2018, 06:01:08 PM
Yeah, works now.
2083  Other / Meta / Re: How long does it take to get a hacked account back ??? on: May 08, 2018, 05:28:47 PM
Send me a new signed message and I'll PM them with it. You'll still have to wait for them to handle it though because I can't restore accounts (just unlock them).
2084  Other / Meta / Re: Recovering hacked account on: May 08, 2018, 05:27:04 PM
I don't have any BTC address or PGP key associated with that bitcointalk account. Honestly this is the only platform in the world where you can change password and email without an email confirmation, so you should do something about that because you can't secure you account enough. Of course that first of all it is my fault, but you also should do something about those confirmations. I provided a lot of evidence which proves that account it is mine, so if you don't want to restore the account, on the email it was since I created it until today when it was hacked, it is because you don't want to that, you have enough proves. Honestly why I would lose time to steal that account, it is a poor Jr. Member, but for me it is important because I built trust upon that account and now I have to do that again on other account in order to get accepted to translate new projects.

I can tell you what PM I sent or received in the whole history of that account, what bigger proof than that could be ?

In 1-2 hours I will get back home and I will try to make again that signed message for ethereum.

Only admins can restore accounts and that's what they require.

I did a new signature:

{
  "address": "0xad2ddcb0ae79253e232a2d2708fbddece977b2d8",
  "msg": "My account RikyRO has been hacked/lost. Please reset the email to bogdy_batista@yahoo.com. The current date is 08th May 2018.",
  "sig": "0x19eb982f8254ed247b3a8b726d9a195625c66bde81f6970f08fc424a7956596a682f907ccd4ed 0261ea5b0dbf491e67beffe8a4f1e041cf68566a74f97f591b11c",
  "version": "3",
  "signer": "MEW"
}

Now I have tested it in both myew and etherscan to be sure that are working.




Sorry for my impulsive last post, I am really sorry about that, I hope you guys understand that it is frustrating to take it all again from zero.

Still doesn't verify for me on etherscan.
2085  Other / Meta / Re: Recovering hacked account on: May 08, 2018, 03:45:27 PM


Please tell me which method you prefer, I think I have enough proofs and is obvious that is my account.

A signed message from a bitcoin address is likely the only thing that is going to get your account back. If you can't provide that then you should at least try sort the ethereum one out.
2086  Other / Meta / Re: Recovering hacked account on: May 08, 2018, 01:10:15 PM
Doesn't verify for me. Admin's probably won't accept an eth addresses anyway so please provide other sources.
2087  Other / Meta / Re: Account ban, help on: May 08, 2018, 09:05:48 AM
I don't see your sources. It wont be unbanned. The account is only a Junior Member anyway so just forget about it.

There are so many people who actually think that bitcoin isn’t worthy to be recognised as a currency or to get noticed and praised by the bigger corporations, well I’m here to tell you what they are saying is based on how they think and what kind of person they are. Most of them believe in rumours,fears and negligence and could be a little bit jealousy as there are bunch of people who are already successful and leading a decent life from crypto currency which they can’t get.

Let’s breakdown the myths-

1. Digital Currencies Are Primarily Used for Illicit Activity
One of the oldest and, unfortunately, most pervasive myths about digital currencies is that they are most commonly (or perhaps most effectively) used for illicit activity. While it's true that digital currencies have been used by individuals with nefarious goals in mind as well as by criminal enterprises, the same could of course be said for fiat currencies as well. One of the reasons behind this myth is the anonymity that is crucial to most cryptocurrencies. As the first major digital currency, bitcoin became popular in black markets like the Silk Road. While it's true that aspects of bitcoin (including the anonymity it provides) may have been enticing to criminals conducting illegal business in that and other similar markets, it's worth remembering that it was the transactions themselves which were illegal, not the cryptocurrency. Criminals could (and do) use fiat currency for their activities as well.

2. Digital Currencies Don't Have Value
Cryptocurrencies have proven difficult to categorize. In the U.S., the IRS has spent years determining how to classify digital currencies for tax purposes. Investors haven't been quite sure how to treat their digital assets when it comes to taxes or even everyday transactions. All of this has perhaps contributed to the idea that cryptocurrencies are a fad or that they will simply disappear. In actuality, however, not only have cryptocurrencies only been gaining in prominence and popularity, but they are generally set up in such a way as to minimize the risk of these things happening. As with other types of currencies, cryptocurrencies can be exchanged for goods and services, and they have value in accordance with the belief of the holders of the currency.

3. Cryptocurrencies Aren't Secure
As digital currencies have gained popularity, there have been a number of high-profile scams and thefts. In many cases, digital currency exchanges themselves were the targets of these attacks. In other cases, criminals capitalized on vulnerabilities in wallets and other aspects of the cryptocurrency space. Investors worrying about the security of digital assets should remember that it is possible for hacks, thefts, and fraud to occur. However, there are many ways that investors can change their behavior in order to better protect their holdings. Further, it's also worth noting that many governments and other financial institutions have shown an interest in blockchain technology; one of the reasons for this is that blockchain is widely seen as a secure and effective tool with untapped potential.

4. Digital Currencies Are Bad for the Environment
There is reason for concern about the impact of digital currencies on the environment. As cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and ether have taken off, so too has the number of mining operations around the world. Each of the individual mining rigs requires massive amounts of computational power, and this in turn requires large amounts of electricity. What's worth remembering, however, is that the value of mining for a cryptocurrency nearly always outweighs the real-world cost that is required in order to complete that mining operation. What's more, many cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, have set hard caps on the total number of tokens which can be mined. After this point, individuals will no longer be able to mine for new tokens or coins, and the costs of the computational power required for mining that currency will be dramatically reduced.

5. Cryptocurrencies Are a Scam
Again, there is reason for investors to be cautious when it comes to potential scams. There have been numerous initial coin offerings that have proven to be fraudulent in various ways. However, savvy investors tend to treat cryptocurrencies in the same way that they would any other potential investment: with a healthy dose of skepticism and a large amount of research and caution. It's possible for investors to be drawn into fraudulent investment opportunities in the traditional financial world as well, and this situation tends to come about when an investor has not taken the time to thoroughly consider and learn about the details of the opportunity itself. Just as one must sift through good and bad potential investments in the traditional financial landscape, one must take the time and effort to sort out dubious investment opportunities in the cryptocurrency space. While it's impossible to fully eliminate the chance that you will be the victim of a scam, this nonetheless helps reduce those chances considerably.

So don’t waste your energy and vision on those statements which spreads only false information,rumours and on negative people as well.

Looking at the chart, it seems like the price could accelerate gains above the $10,000 level. Above this last, the next stop for buyers could be $10,800 and $11,000 in the near term.

•Bitcoin price is trading with a positive bias and it currently placed nicely above $9,500 against the US Dollar.

•There is a major bullish trend line forming with support at $9,600 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).

•The pair remains in an uptrend and it may well break the $10,000 level and settle above it.

Bitcoin price is gaining momentum above $9,500 against the US Dollar. BTC/USD is likely to accelerate higher above the $10,000 and $10,500 levels in the near term.

In the coming days, We’ll see some nicely placed prices in the chart.

Copy and pasting.

Message doesn't verify for me.
It does verify for me, both online and in Bitcoin Core.

I missed the full stop at the end.

Do you still have access to the account or was it hacked? Send a more up to date message and I'll PM the admin's but they don't usually respond to even me but it's better than nothing.
2090  Other / Meta / Re: How long does it take to get a hacked account back ??? on: May 07, 2018, 05:53:49 PM
Message doesn't verify for me. Try sign a new one with today's date.
2091  Other / Meta / Re: Ban account on: May 07, 2018, 09:41:30 AM
Not sure what it was banned for but I doubt you'll get it back. Why is there a huge gap in your post history from June 23, 2013, to October 08, 2017?

2092  Other / Meta / Re: recovery my account on: May 07, 2018, 08:24:50 AM
Have you been PMing theymos and cyrus every so often? They're the only ones that can help here.
2093  Other / Meta / Re: How long does it take to get a hacked account back ??? on: May 07, 2018, 08:23:45 AM
Where is your signed message? Do you just need the account unlocking or restoring?
2094  Other / Meta / Re: Common shared account for bounty management allowed? on: May 07, 2018, 08:15:27 AM
That's fine.
2095  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcointalk English Premier League pool betting Discussion Thread on: May 06, 2018, 02:25:54 PM
Well City just finished 0-0 and I had that down as 4-0. I wonder if this is the week I get zero. Arsenal shouldn't lose but you never know with them.
2096  Other / Meta / Re: Spamming in the waves thread on: May 06, 2018, 01:57:52 PM
All same emails. All banned.
2097  Other / Meta / Re: Spamming in the waves thread on: May 06, 2018, 12:33:03 PM
Just went through some post history and realized that theses accounts went through a period of innactivity and then resumed activity with a different post style so the accounts were clearly bought, is there any chance of these accounts getting banned for low quality and copied posts if I go through and report all of them?

Also, if its discovered that this is some sort of bumping service, I believe that the people who pay for these services should be punished somehow

They're probably hacked. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=117725 BazkieBumpercar

Huge gap from February 17, 2015 to August 27, 2017.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=216933     baokychen

April 25, 2015 to July 06, 2017

If you post a list of them I'll go through and ban them.
2098  Other / Meta / Re: Spamming in the waves thread on: May 06, 2018, 11:43:20 AM
Did my airdrop on waves SO FAST!!!

Tesla just went to Mars but WAVES has greater ambition

Buying WAVES before smart contracts makes amazing sense

1) Buy WAVES 2) wait 3) retire 2019

I missed bitcoin at $10, not going to miss WAVES at the same price!!

There are dozens more posts like this, just go from page 62 in the thread onwards, i'm hoping that all those accounts get permabanned.
Thread link- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3223136.0

They all have email addresses ending in '@pro-mail-service.com'. They're not new accounts either. All are registered in 2013/2014. All are on signature campaigns apart from one so I'd suspect they just belong to a farmer more than someone getting paid just to bump a thread (though that could also be the case).
2099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcointalk English Premier League pool betting Discussion Thread on: May 05, 2018, 08:03:41 PM
Well I hope Steph and Cicciobtc did as well. I'm sure they got some points though.
2100  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcointalk English Premier League pool betting Discussion Thread on: May 05, 2018, 03:58:55 PM
Well I've got a grand total of zero points so far. West Brom ended up beating Spurs but I wouldn't have got the score right anyway.
