My account was hacked but i can not get an email to get it back, they changed the email account?  Cry
Have no staked address that can sign a message from.
So what are my options here?

My account is west man!

Please someone help because the ones I have pm'd are not responding anymore.

My account is satoshi! They disabled my account! It got stolen!
I have no staked address so I can't sign message. I PM'd theymos but he won't reply.
My account is satoshi!

See my point? Unfortunately, if you can't positively identify yourself as an owner of an account, you can't have it back basically.
I suggest you take this as a lesson learned the hard way. Stake a proof, be it an address or PGP signature or whatever. Keep them safe.

What rank dude? Senior or hero member? I think you are so unlucky. Hackers only want to hack high rank accounts. Very dangerous.

Is this news legit or fake? If the database was really leaked, theymos would announce it. He announced it in 2015 hack, so he is transparent about all hack cases. No need to hide if the forum is hacked.

There isn't a way to recover it.
Admins state they only accept signed messages of staked addresses.
You may be able to recover it some other way such as proving ownership of the IP you reach this forum by (but that's unlikely)!

It is illogical to unable to recover the account, there is secondary password. Other sites or forums have password recover, and can't change the email by entering the password, there must be a confirmation of old email confirmation to modify the new email.

Yes, the secondary password is a staked address!
I doubt any other method of recovering the account have been out in place. As buying and selling of accounts is fully accepted here.

This is probably the main problem of Bitcointalk account security, people can easily change their email without any notification/permission from the old email. I think this should be fixed because in my opinion email is the last way for the users to recover their account. Because usually, people will have a good security on their email address and most of email services will require the users to have a very strong password and even with 2FA.

That is certainly true. This is a big problem for all users of the account bitcointalk, however I think if indeed it happens is definitely Admin Bitcointalk have an effective way of doing our account recovery affected by the hacking. Because I see that every single thing we do in the forums always on record by the system
